He is also survived by his daughters, Francine Packes and husband Dennis, Renee Camacho and husband Jeff, Nicole Vetrano, and Kimberly Vetrano and partner Joyce Vittorini; his stepchildren, Adam Hinkel and wife Stacey, and Kathleen Rokis and husband Anthony; his grandson, Nicholas and his wife Marisa and their daughter Haven; his granddaughter, Gianna; his step-grandchildren, Emma, Gabriella, Hanna, Olivia, Augustus and Sawyer; his siblings, Linda Black and husband John, Thomas Vetrano and Edward Vetrano and wife Patricia; and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.
