Joseph Nicolini Jr passed away peacefully at home on October 31, 2024. He was a devoted husband to the late Ellen Nicolini and a loving father to the late Joseph Nicolini III and Karey Nicolini. Joe was a cherished grandfather to Joseph Nicolini IV, Kassidy Doyle, Jason (Breana), Jena-Ellen, Joseph Thomas, and Julianna Nicolini, also, a fond Uncle to many, who will carry his memory in their hearts.
Preceded in death by his beloved parents Joseph and Lucille Nicolini, and his dear siblings Peter (Geraldine), Harry (Bonita), Florence (Edward) Lehuta, Shirley (Theodore) Zaucha, Richard (Rosemary), and Arthur Nicolini. Joe’s remarkable legacy of love and family continues through his daughter and grandchildren.
Originally from Chicago, he spent many years in Schiller Park before retiring as a mechanic from Marriott In Flight Services. He later moved to and enjoyed the tranquility of Marengo, where he embraced the open spaces and fresh air that surrounded him.
A true craftsman, Joe had a passion for antique cars, motorcycles, boats, and snowmobiles. His remarkable ability to fix anything with an engine was a testament to his skill and dedication. Proud of his Italian heritage, he instilled a sense of family values and traditions in those he loved.
Joe had a unique gift for turning neighbors into lifelong friends, always ready with a helping hand or a warm smile. He was an amazing father and a loving grandfather who took great joy and pride in his grandchildren. He also had a special love for dogs, welcoming them as part of the family.
His kind spirit, strong work ethic, and love for his family and friends will be missed by all who knew him. A Memorial service will be held on Monday, November 4, 2024, at Sax Tiedemann Funeral Home in Franklin Park with burial services immediately following at Memorial Gardens Cemetary in Skokie.
