Aldo Sacco Sr.'s Obituary
Aldo Sacco Sr., age 83 of Rehoboth Beach, DE passed away on Tuesday, June 27, 2023, at Brandywine Senior Living, in Rehoboth Beach, DE. He was born on October 5, 1939, in Carpanzano, Italy, son of the late Luigi and Rosina Sacco.
Mr. Sacco married the love of his life, Elizabeth M. Sacco in Philadelphia, PA on September 23, 1967, and the two would spend many beautiful years together, with countless happy memories. He was a hard worker, a great provider for his family and a go-getter that operated multiple companies simultaneously including running his own construction company, running a snow removal company, all while owning and managing a lumber yard. Aldo loved spending time with his family and friends whether it was hosting holiday parties at his home, playing golf with friends, or playing poker and scopa with his grandchildren. He treasured his time with his grandchildren, above all. He was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend. He loved telling stores of Calabria, Italy where he grew up and listening to Italian music. Mr. Sacco had a large personality and would light up the room when he entered it and will be forever missed by all who had the good fortune to know him.
In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by his beloved wife, Elizabeth Sacco; his siblings Renato Sacco, Orlando Sacco, Maria Ciocca, Serina Ciocca, and Lidia Cerquetelli. Mr. Sacco is survived by his sons: Anthony Sacco (William Greene) of Rehoboth Beach, DE and Aldo Sacco, Jr. (Leah), of Wildwood, NJ; his grandchildren: William Greene Sacco of Rehoboth Beach, DE, Aldo Sacco, Joseph DiCola, Jessica Leigh, Danielle Hemphill, and Christina Sacco, all of Wildwood, NJ; his 8 great grandchildren; his brothers: Ettore Sacco (Marie), and Mario Sacco (Judy); his sister, Anna Garafulo; and numerous nieces and nephews.
