Default ID of orange flowering bush

First, pictures can be found he

http://www-misc.wtgroupllc.com/orang...range_ice.html

My family first encountered this in the late 1970's, in Edison, NJ. When
asked, the neighbors (an elderly couple) said the plant was called Orange Ice.
It was the only specimen in the neighborhood.

That bush was 7+ feet tall. Cuttings were taken at that time and planted in
my grandmother's yard in Sayreville, NJ.

From one of the 25-year-old Sayreville bushes, several transplants were dug up
and planted here in Montague, NJ, about six years ago. Those are the ones you
see in the pictures.

I haven't seen this thing in any plant books, nor have I had any luck
searching for a picture of it online. I had a look at several online plant
databases, but they all require more botanical knowledge than I am possessed
of to use at all.

So, anyone know what this sucker is?
