Vincent Loiacono age 77 of Wayne died Sunday, February 22, 2009 at home after a brief illness. His passing was quiet and peaceful while wrapped in the arms of his loving wife.
He was born in Brooklyn, New York and had lived in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn, Newark and Paterson before moving to Wayne thirty-two years ago.
Mr. Loiacono was an Industrial Mechanic having worked for Globe Food Products, later becoming self employed for twenty-six years, then going to work for Garfield Plastic Mold Manufacturing Company in Garfield. He later worked for Chart Corporation manufacturers of Pharmaceuticals and Flavorings. He finally retired from work on July 3, 2008.
He was a natural at understanding engineering and the applications of mechanical devices and was an expert repairman. From his youth on he would take thing apart and put them back together just to see how they worked. You could say that by doing those things he became a self educated expert on machinery.
Vincent met his wife to be Annie at a social gathering in Newark in 1967 and for Vince it was love at first sight. For Annie it was a time of playing hard to get but she finally relented and they married in 1971. The end result was that they shared thirty-eight years of “Fantastic Marriage” together. Vincent, "If I could, I would walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again."
Annie and Vincent enjoyed vacations together to places like Bermuda and Las Vegas, Nevada. In Las Vegas he won a slot machine that became a problem because such a machine was illegal in New Jersey. He ended up accepting money in lieu of the machine but he did win and that was what counted. Most people leave Las Vegas waving good-by to their money but he didn’t he took his winnings home.
His sons are left with many fond memories of a very loving father.
Surviving are his loving wife of thirty-eight years Annie (nee Swindell) Loiacono; two sons Shaimaine Loiacono of Wayne and Vincent Loiacono Jr. and his wife Emily of Staten Island, NY; two grandchildren Corinne and Sabrina Loiacono; a brother Sammy Loiacono of New York City and four sisters Mary Gardella and her husband Richard of Patchogue, NY, Eva Capanzano and her husband Frank of Elmont, NY, Pauline Catana and her husband Frank of Sealy, Texas and Josephine Marino of Bradenton, Florida.
