Joseph W. Carlucci, age 84 of Pompton Plains, formerly of Wayne, passed peacefully on Monday, August 28, 2017.
He was born to William and Julia Carlucci in Port Chester, New York.

He had a lifelong career in logistics having worked for the Exxon Corporation in Florham Park and more recently the Ricoh Corporation in Fairfield before retiring in 1988.
Joe will be remembered for his quiet, reserved way. His easygoing demeanor endeared him to just about everyone he met. He was an avid golfer, could tell you the best restaurants in just about any town, and loved a good red wine.
He was the loving husband of Marilyn (Scott) Carlucci of Pompton Plains; he was the devoted father of Paul Carlucci and his wife Linda of Wayne, and William Carlucci and his wife Sylvie of Verbier, Switzerland; loved step-father of Shannon Gibson and her husband Scott of Montclair, and Bryan Flynn and his wife Jane of Cedar Grove; he was the cherished grandfather of Madison, Joseph, Jonathan, and Jessica Carlucci and Hollen, Norah, and Leland Gibson; he was the dear brother of Marie Sileo and Doris Lancia both of Rye, New York, and the late Joan Forte.
