Vito R. Cassano age 87 of Wayne died Sunday, December 28, 2008 at the Valley Hospital in Ridgewood. His passing was quiet and peaceful while receiving the loving care of his family who were at his bedside holding his hand.

He was born in Philadelphia, PA and spent his formative years in Long Island before moving to Wayne forty-two years ago. Vito and his wife Jennie were visiting Wayne and toured a model home in the then new Rolling Hills Estates development. Jennie fell in love with the model home and Vito agreed and purchased it.

They spent forty happy years in that home until Jennie’s passing in March of 2006.

Vito was a construction worker for W. George Rodgers Company for many years. He was a member of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, Local 1536 in New York City.

He was a parishioner of Our Lady of The Valley RC Church in Wayne and was a member of the Wayne Elks Lodge 2181 and the Italian American Independent Club of Totowa.

He was a devoted and loving family man who provided well for his family. Vito was a wonderful cook and was especially adept at pasta and sauces all to the delight of his family.

Perhaps the highlight of his life was the arrival of his granddaughter Julie and of course his three great grandchildren Johanna, Giovanni and Xavier Carrasquillo. He loved them with all of his heart.

Surviving are his loving daughter Judy Breen and her husband Richard; one granddaughter Julie Breen of Wayne and three Great grand children.
