Henry TROBIANO Obituary

TROBIANO Henry C. Enjoyed 88 years of love and laughter before passing peacefully on June 26 at his happy home in Chesapeake, VA with his adored wife, Carol, at his side. Henny's love affair with life began in Hackensack, where he was born into the large family of Antonio and Angelina. He distinguished himself among his many siblings (survived by Yola Rizzi, Thomas and James) with his amazing sense of humor. His adventures in his life's journey include serving in WWII on the Alaskan front, founding Troby Motors and marrying Muriel Mavus (deceased) as well as the joy of his children, Sandi (husband Dave) and Stephen (wife Doreen). Step-children, Jimmy and Alan Gallo, Darlene Hall and Jackie Koren are treasures of his legacy. One of his proudest family moments arrived upon the birth of his cherished granddaughter, Desiree Wesner (wife of Bryan Bartell) and he reveled in his role of "Pop-Pop" to Scott Wesner, Becki Kerchner, Thomas Handcock, Walter Gorman, Melissa Beecher, Brandon and Brian Gallo and Jeffrey Hall. Great grandfather of: Jarrod, Bryan, Cole, Tyler, Alexis and Aryanna. Many nieces and nephews smile at the words "Uncle Henny", and to the friends he leaves behind, Henny will be remembered for his charisma and character. Services to be held at the Chesapeake Chapel of the HD Oliver Funeral Apt. on June 29 with interment on June 30 at Chesapeake Memorial Gardens. A gathering to celebrate Henny's life will be held in NJ in the near future to include local family and friends.
