Anne R. Manley, 90, of New Brunswick, passed away on Wednesday September 15, 2021 at home surrounded by her family. Anne was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. As a lifelong resident of New Brunswick she was active in community affairs and previously served as an Extraordinary Minister as a parishioner of St. Peter the Apostle Church. Anne loved the rich neighborhood surroundings including Buccleuch Park, Rutgers University Saint Peter’s Church and of course downtown New Brunswick with it’s beautiful Library. Over the years, she loved to share the heritage and beauty of New Brunswick with her family. Following her graduation from St. Peter’s Nursing School, Anne worked as a Registered Nurse at St. Peter’s University Hospital retiring in 1994. She was a member of the Nursing Auxiliary, and the St. Peter’s PTA. Anne was exceptionally energetic, and quick-witted. She loved working and assisting people wherever needed. As her family grew and she devoted time to her children, she also worked part time and was always assigned to the busiest floor where she was needed. She loved reading, traveling, swimming, and long walks particularly on the Rutgers University Campus and Buccleuch Park near her home. She could not pass up the Wednesday buy one get one free sundae specials at the local Carvel. Above all, she loved being a mother and grandmother and spending time with her family, hosting countless Sunday and holiday dinners at her home and cookouts with her family at “sunny” Cedar Hills Swim Club where she was a fixture for 55 years. Anne was predeceased by her loving husband of 63 years William Manley (2018); her brother, John Selesky, Jr. and sisters Rita DeSanto and Mary Anderson.
