The Tana Quigley Scholarship Fund will be awarded to a dancer at Maywood Dance Center this fall.

The expecting mom was a licensed clinical social worker formerly practicing in Hackensack. She had been working at a counseling center in Monmouth County, specializing in trauma therapy.

Quigley, a Woodcliff Lake native, was a professional dancer who competed for years and taught classes through her pregnancy at Maywood Dance Center.

She was remembered as being amazingly selfless.

"We lost not only an instructor, but a friend, mentor, inspiration and a joy," the Maywood Dance Center said of Quigley, 35.

"We will always love and remember the impact you made on so many young lives."
