Giacomo Acquarulo Obituary
Giacomo "Jack" Louis Acquarulo, of Watertown, entered the gates of Heaven on October 4, 2023, with his loving family at his side. Jack was born on March 5, 1939 in New Haven to the late Louis and Angelina Apicella Acquarulo. Jack was the loving husband of Raffaella "Rae" Acquarulo for the past 62 years. In addition to his wife, Jack leaves his children, Denise (Gerardo) Borrelli, Lisa (Douglas) Palmieri, and Lewis (JoAnn) Acquarulo; his brother, Lawrence Acquarulo; grandchildren, Gerard (Marissa) Borrelli, Angela (Giuseppe) Guerrera, Jonathan (Morgan) Borrelli and Lindsay and Jacob Acquarulo. He is also survived by his cherished great grandchildren, Briella Guerrera and Gerard Borrelli, Jr.; his sister-in-law, Patricia DePino; and many wonderful longtime friends. He was predeceased by his brother-in-law, Pasquale DePino. Jack worked as a banker for many years in the New Haven, Waterbury and Bristol areas. At the time of his retirement, he was President of Community Savings Bank in Bristol. He enjoyed his famous Sunday meatball dinners with his family, trips to Vermont and took great pride in his manicured lawn.

No one could ever ask for a better neighbor. I knew under his watch our house and family were safe. I will miss the great chats. Rest in peace Mr Acquarulo. I´m forever grateful to have known you.
