Gerald (Jerry) Servidio
Gerald (Jerry) Servidio, a lifelong resident of Cos Cob, Connecticut, passed away on December 3, 2025, at Green Acres of Manistee, Michigan. Born on October 26, 1940, in Greenwich, Connecticut, Jerry was the son of the late Joseph Servidio and Theresa (Scarpelli) Servidio. He graduated from Greenwich High School in 1959.
During the early 1960s, Jerry served in the United States Army in Pirmasens, Germany. It was there that he met and married his beloved late wife, Martha Faye Servidio. Jerry dedicated over 35 years of his life to working as a USPS letter carrier in Cos Cob, where he formed lasting friendships with many individuals, including the late Doc Orrico, the late Patty Macari, Gerry VanGorden, Billy Tomacelli, Roast Beef Wayne Belmont, Bobby Carlson, Barbara Urso, Kathy Starcher, RBI Dominic Francia, Merle Piasecki, and Ricky Scully. Notably, Jerry was honored with the Million Mile Plaque for his exceptional service, having never had any incidents during his 35-year career.
After retiring from his letter carrier duties, Jerry continued to work for Stolt Nielsen in Cos Cob, Connecticut, for several years.
Jerry cherished his life in Cos Cob. For years, he enjoyed making Scarpelli Sausage with his late uncles Isaac and Mac Scarpelli, his brother Tommy Servidio, and his neighborhood friends. He was also a founding member of the Cos Cob Cruisers classic car club. Jerry had many cherished memories of cruising with his good friends Carmen Morretti, Skeets Yantorno, David Belmonte, Anthony Mitchell, the late Junior Riale, Jimmy Pucci, Freddie Cofone, Art Hess, and many others.
Jerry enjoyed spending time with godson Ronnie Scarpelli, friends Danny Gentile, Rocco Ceci, Mike Creamer, Darrin Wigglesworth and fondly remembers all of their adventures. He greatly appreciated Sylvia Sikoutris's friendship and help throughout the years and goddaughter Rona Scarpelli's care and concern for him.
Jerry had a wide range of interests. He loved caring for the animals in his backyard, tending to his koi pond, and maintaining his flower beds. In his early years, his passion for modified racing led him to join up with the late Nicky Giardina and his wife Betty at the Danbury Racearena. In his later years, he continued to support his close friends, including the late SK Modified race car driver Teddy Christopher and race car owner Doug DiPisa and their teams.
Throughout his life, Jerry cherished the family gatherings with his parents, brother, uncles, aunts, and cousins. Saturday lunches at his parents' home, holiday meals at his brother Tommy and sister-in-law Carol's, and special occasions at his niece Tara and Sean's home were all filled with love and joy.
Later in life, Jerry joined his son and daughter-in-law, GR and Teresa in beautiful Northern Michigan. He deeply cherished the love and care they had given him over the past 17 years, following the passing of his wife, Faye.
Jerry is survived by his son GR (Teresa) Servidio of Northern Michigan, brother Tommy (Carol) Servidio of Stamford, CT, sister in laws Sue Benge of Indianapolis, IN and Sharon Benge of Pittsboro, IN, nieces Tara (Sean) Mulcahey of Stamford, CT and Leslie Hunt of Pittsboro, IN and nephew Brack (Erin) Benge of Linden, MI, grand niece Reagan Benge Raubinger and grand nephews Ryan and Aidan Mulcahey, Sawyer Benge and Trae Hunt and many, many cousins.
