Giuseppe Valenti

Giuseppe Valenti, 84, of Colts Neck, New Jersey died on Monday, June 19.
Giuseppe was born in Castellammare Del Golfo, Italy to the late Lucrezia and Gaspare Valenti.
He was raised in Italy, and from a very early age worked with his father on the family's farm. In his late twenties, he immigrated to the United States and began working in construction. After a short time, he went back to Italy and married his loving wife of 55 years, Giuseppa, before moving back to the Brooklyn, NY and starting their family together.
Giuseppe was a skilled worker who knew how to do it all. From wood working, to masonry, he could build or fix anything around the house. He loved to work hard, and most of all, he loved spending time with his family. He was a thoughtful, kind, and warm spirit that will always be remembered for his big heart and wonderful smile.
Giuseppe is predeceased by his parents, and his brother Frank Valenti.
He is survived by his beloved wife Giuseppa Valenti, and his children Lucrezia and her husband Joe Tagliavia of Freehold, NJ, Gasper and his wife Silvana Valenti of Lake Worth, FL, and Paola and her husband Eric DiNapoli of Colts Neck, NJ, his sister Rosina Valenti, and six grandchildren Alessia, Stephanie, Cynthia, Erica, Marisa, and Samuel.
