Vincenzo Parisi

Vincenzo was born February 1, 1931 in Castellamare, Del’Golfo, Italy to Antonina and Alberto Parisi. He emigrated to the United States at the age of 25 and worked construction. Vincenzo helped with the construction and renovation of buildings at Rockefeller Center. He worked tirelessly to achieve the American Dream and provide for his family. He was an American success story. A member of the Greatest Generation!

Vinnie is survived by his wife, Giuseppa, son Albert, and daughter Nina. He also had four grandchildren: Christina, Michael, Victor, and Peter.

A Funeral Mass will be held 11:00 AM, Thursday, April 28, 2022 at St. Mary Magdalene Church (625 Magdala Place, Apex, NC 27502). A reception will follow from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM at Apex Funeral Home, 550 W Williams St, Apex, NC 27502. All are welcome.

In lieu of flowers please consider sending a memorial contribution in honor of Vincenzo to a family that was near and dear to the Parisi family's heart. This young family lost their dad at the age of forty-two to Covid. He left behind a wife and 4 children under the age of 8, with the youngest under one. Vinnie spent many Sunday afternoons enjoying the love and laughter of these children. As you can imagine, it is a difficult time for this family, and Vinnie would be happy to know that they were being aided in his memory. For information on sending a memorial contribution directly to this family, or other condolences to the Parisi family, contact Nina Rizzo at [email protected].
