Obituary of John Venezia

Please share a memory of John to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.

John Venezia, age 93 died Sunday, June 9, 2019 after recent illness.

John was born the son of the late Antonio and Jenney Venezia, and husband of the late Elia Venezia.

He was a World War II Veteran having served as a Sergeant in the Army in the European Theater. Among other jobs, he had last been a long-term employee and retiree from Unisys in Blue Bell, PA.

John was an avid painter and sketch artist and thoroughly enjoyed his grandsons and great-grandchildren.  His kind nature, jovial disposition, and well-appreciated good sense of humor brought smiles to all whom he encountered, from close friends and family members to complete strangers.  Another of his many admirable gifts was that of story-telling.  John enjoyed playing and watching sports like boxing and golf, but most of all he loved attending and watching the games in which his grandsons and their teammates played – he was the perfect fan.

He is survived by his sons, Paris DiPietro (Vielka) and Andrew DiPietro (Patricia) and four grandsons Vincente (Jessica) of DE, Michael (Tanya), Gregory (Kerri) and Arturo of PA, as well as great-grandchildren Layla Anne and Aaron John.   John is predeceased by sisters Mary Hawley, Christine Grenfell, Lillian Hunsicker, Ann Worthington and Jean Pellechio as well as brothers Charles, Samuel and Joseph Venezia.

His Funeral Service will be held on Friday, June 14, 2019 at 10:00AM at St. Helena Church, 1489 DeKalb Pike, Blue Bell. 

The Visitation will be held on Friday, Jun 14 from 9:00 to 10:00 AM at the church before the Funeral Mass.

John's Interment will take place privately at Washington Crossing National Cemetery.
