James J. Kedersha Jr.'s Obituary
James J. Kedersha, Jr.
Loving Husband and Devoted Father
James J. Kedersha, Jr., age 70, passed away suddenly in his Medford, New Jersey home on Thursday, January 16, 2020. Jim grew up in Rutherford, New Jersey and was predeceased by his parents, James J. Sr. and Rosemary Kedersha.
Jim is survived by his heartbroken wife of thirty-five years, Veronica M. “Ronnie” (née Penater) and his loving daughter, Jenna Elizabeth. Also left to cherish his memory are his two sisters Judith (Dick) Sanderson and Dr. Jill (Alec) McClay, brother-in-law and sister-in-law Rick and Karen Penater, many nieces, nephews, aunts, cousins, godchildren, and close friends who are considered family.
Jim was happiest when he was with his family and friends, especially Ronnie and Jenna, and sitting in his happy place, the beach. He was a kind, generous, and humble man who would do anything for his family. Jim loved to cook and share his food around the table sharing stories and laughter. Jim was blessed with a quick, sarcastic wit that kept everyone laughing. He will be truly and deeply missed.
