Marie Therese Landers (nee Wright) passed away peacefully on August 2, 2019.  She was 79 years old.  Marie was born on June 12, 1940 in the Bronx, NY to Harold J. Wright and Anna Marie (Gaffney) Wright and grew up in Pleasantville and Scarsdale, NY.  She attended high school at The Academy of Our Lady of Good Counsel in White Plains, NY, graduating in 1958.  She then attended St. Vincent’s Hospital School of Nursing in New York City, graduating in 1961.  She started her career as a Registered Nurse in St. Vincent’s Emergency Room, followed by work as the RN for B. Altman & Company in White Plains, NY.  Marie married Vincent P. Landers of Tuckahoe, NY in 1964 at St. Pius X in Scarsdale, NY.  Together, they had four children and enjoyed 55 devoted years of marriage.  When they moved to Old Tappan, NJ in 1970, Marie continued her nursing career as head of the IV Team at Pascack Valley Hospital in Westwood, NJ.
