Gerald Rigoli Obituary
Originally from Millville, NJ he also lived in Florida for several years before moving to Binghamton, NY to be with his daughter Monica and her husband Donald and then to Mountain Top, PA.
Jerry owned a successful roofing company in Vineland, NJ. Prior to that he was a member of both Local 213 and Local 30 Roofer's Unions. He learned the trade early, working for his father, grandfather, and uncles.
Jerry had a love for music. He enjoyed writing lyrics and singing and had an amazing rich, soulful voice and could sing just about any genre. He looked forward to karaoke every Saturday night and loved every opportunity to sing with his family and friends, even after becoming ill.
He enjoyed taking "road trips" visiting friends and family from Florida to Oregon. He loved the outdoors, camping and taking walks in nature, loving every creature from spiders to deer and everything in between.
Jerry is survived by his daughter Monica Bonualas (Donald), daughter Catherine Thomas, and son Gerald G. Rigoli lll; brother Jimmie Phrampus of Florida, sister Linn Harper Rigoli of Vineland NJ; sister Nan Brignolo (Larry) of North Carolina; sister Lori Haines of Vineland NJ; seven grandchildren, several great grandchildren, cousins, nieces and nephews.

Flowers are welcomed or donations can be made to Compassionate Care Hospice, 1444 East Lackawanna Avenue, Suite 218, Olyphant, PA 18447.
May he rest in peace and live in our hearts forever. Jerry's favorite color was purple and the family invites anyone who wishes to do so, to feel free to wear a little something purple in his honor.
