LAWRENCEVILLE - Angelo J. Picarello, 90, died on Monday at his daughter's home in Lawrenceville.
Born in Trenton, he moved with his parents to Lawrenceville, where he later built his own home and raised his family in Eldridge Park.
A Navy veteran of World War II, Mr. Picarello returned to a job with General Motors, Fisher Guide Division, in Ewing Township. He retired after 38 years, and remained a proud and loyal member of the United Auto Workers.
He was a longtime member of The Church of St. Ann, and participated in the Lawrence Township Senior Citizens Club 1. He enjoyed golfing, hunting, fishing and gardening, and often made his own wine from grapes and plums that he grew, raisins, or anything else that he could ferment.
Son of the late Generoso Picarello and Annie Gallo, and husband of the late Rose C. Picarello, he is survived by five children, thirteen grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren. Also surviving are his sister Susan Terranova; his brother Pasquale and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his son-in-law; his sister, Helen Quill; and his brothers, Frank, Nunzio, and Martin Picarello.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Saturday at 11 a.m. at The Church of St. Ann, 1253 Lawrence Rd., Lawrenceville, NJ. Burial will be in St. Mary's Cemetery, Hamilton. Friends may call on Saturday from 9 to 11 a.m. in the daily chapel of The Church of St. Ann.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to The Church of St. Ann, 1253 Lawrence Rd, Lawrenceville, NJ 08648, or to the charity of the donor's choice.
