He was born in New York City and lived in Brooklyn, New York before moving to Wayne forty-five years ago.

He was a commercial painter for thirty years before his retirement in 1982.

Mr. Carlucci was a United States Navy Veteran having served in the Submarine Corp on the USS Segundo 398 and the USS Redfish. During his service on the USS Segundo 398 they intercepted the Japanese submarine I-401 submarine aircraft carrier. Charles was part of a six man boarding party that secured the submarine, having personally raised the American Flag once aboard the sub. It was determined that the submarine was destined for the Panama Canal to release the three aircraft aboard and bomb the canal. He saw action in the Asiatic Pacific Theatre of the war and received the Bronze Star, Asiatic Pacific Ribbon with one star, the American Theatre Ribbon, the Victory Ribbon and a Navy Unit Commendation.

He was currently serving on the Advisory Committee of the USS Ling in Hackensack.

Mr. Carlucci was the loving father of Charles Carlucci and his wife Elizabeth of Little Falls, and Michael Carlucci and his wife Nancy of Wayne; cherished grandfather of Brian and Amanda Carlucci; dear brother of Angela Stempel of Honolulu, Hawaii.

In lieu of flowers memorial donations to the Wounded Warrior Project would be appreciated.
