Ron was born on January 8, 1942 in Paterson, New Jersey to the late Vincenzo and Alma Pacilio. He lived in Wayne, NJ; Las Vegas, NV; and Charlotte, NC. Ron studied business at St. Bonaventure University, then began a career in retail buying and designing women and children's footwear. This work enabled him to travel extensively through Europe, Asia and South America.
Ron loved the "Rat Pack", good shoes, Italian food, Las Vegas and dogs.... but above all things, he loved time spent with his family.
His parents and brother, Robert Pacilio predeceased him. Ron leaves behind his loving wife, Kristen (Skaflestad) Pacilio, his children; Marleine Pacilio, Allison (Kevin) Fredricks, and Jonathan (Kim) Pacilio; grandchildren, Taylor and Michael Fredricks, Violet and McKenna Pacilio.
A memorial service to celebrate Ron's life will be held on Saturday, July 30th, 2022 at ten o'clock at Forest Hill Church 7224 Park Road Charlotte, NC 28210.
