John Emanuel Obituary
He was born December 1, 1948, in Waterbury CT a son of the late Alice (D'Aversa) and John Emanuel Sr. For the last 26 years he's been residing in SC.
John served in the National Guard for 6 years. He was an avid car guy that once owned his own business then managed many body shops and service areas until he retired. His passion was his corvettes that he restored and showed. Nascar was something he always had on the television. He used to love to race himself too. His other love was spending time with his dogs.
He is survived by his loving wife of 48 years Pamela (Duda), his son Jason Casimir Emanuele of NC. He also leaves a sister Mary Kelson, five brothers, Ronald, Donald, Domenic, Frank and Anthony along with the rest of his big extended family and friends. He was predeceased by his brother Robert.

Pam , So sorry to hear about John passing away . I knew John and his family since I was little. I remember going to Connecticut Drag Way with John and his brother Ronnie back in the sixties. I also worked with him at Stanley´s Auto Body and he was the neatest body man I ever saw. My condolences, Jim O´Leary
