He was predeceased by his parents, Eugene and Victoria (Amendola) Curcio, his wife, Antoinette Curcio, and his son, John Curcio. John is survived by his loving daughters, Deborah Curcio of Hazlet, and Lorine Tantillo and her husband, Michael, of Hazlet, his caring daughter in law, Teresa Curcio and his cherished grandchildren, Michael Mandato, Daniel Curcio, John Curcio, Gabrielle Tantillo, Stephanie Tantillo, and Amanda Tantillo, along with many dear nieces and nephews.
