Joseph Ghiloni Obituary
Joseph Mark Ghiloni, 63, of Jacksonville, FL, and formerly Greenwich, CT, passed peacefully in his sleep surrounded by family on Monday, September 24, 2018.
He is survived by his wife, Ellen, daughters Erica Brown (Peter), Courtney Ghiloni (Matthew DiCesare), and Chelsea Tracy (fiancé Garth Muratori), grandsons Noah and Dylan Brown, brother Peter (Joanne), sister Rosemary Schoenherr (Charles), along with nieces Alicia Unger (Kevin) and Melissa Schoenherr and nephews Peter Ghiloni and Bobby Schoenherr. He is predeceased by his parents Leo and Mary Ghiloni, late wife Joanne, and daughter Lindsay.
Joey was born October 28, 1954 in the Bronx, New York. He had a long and successful career at Swisher International as a Vice President of Trade Operations.
