Silvio Broccoli, 84 passed away peacefully of leukemia and CHF on July 2, 2023 surrounded by his loving family.
Silvio was born and raised in Italy. He moved to the United States from Liver pool, England in 1965 after finishing his academics as a hairstylist. In 1966 he married the love of his life, Angela (nee Ventre).
Silvio spent most of his life working as a hairstylist, and being a devoted father, to his sons, Gregory and Fabio.
He was passionate about gardening, coin collecting and watching his Italian soccer teams – and most of all, his family.
His passion, as a hairstylist, brought him a very large following. He saw beauty in all things and loved his family deeply.
He will be missed tremendously by his beloved wife, Angela (nee Ventre), his sons, Gregory and Fabio, and grandchildren – Brielle, Alaysia, Andriano, Nataliya, Gianni, and Biagio : his daughter-in-law Melissa; his brother, Armando, and sister Rosina Dellagrotta, as well as countless friends, and customers, whose lives he touched.

I am going to miss you my friend. The neighborhood won’t be the same without you.
To Fabio Greg and Angela my condolences on your loss.
I am so deeply saddened by the passing of Silvio. I just recently ran into him at ShopRite. I helped him with his produce, giving him a bag. When I looked at him, I told him that he looked familiar. He said to me, “so do you!” I asked him if he was Mr. Broccoli, and to his surprise, he said, “yes I am!”
It must have been about 45 years since I saw him last. I grew up on Willard avenue, and went to PS 30 with Gregory. I now work at PS 30, and saw him again a few weeks ago in front of his home, and said hello! I had no idea he was ill. He looked wonderful!
To the family, my condolences to you. He will be sadly missed!
Sincerely,
Donna Juliano Tinari
