Phil Fazzio was a well-known businessman and a good friend to many local residents of Glassboro and Washington Township, NJ. He was also a man of generosity and strength. He dedicated his life to providing for his large family. He enjoyed listening to Frank Sinatra, Crystal Gale and the oldies but goodies music. He enjoyed Sunday drives and taking his wife out to dinner frequently to a few of his favorite Italian restaurants. When his children were young, he enjoyed taking them to Wildwood, NJ for vacation each summer for years and created lasting memories. He attended all their sports games (home or away) after a hard day’s work. He taught his children many things from the Bible because of his strong faith in God. Phil and Theresa made sure that all 5 of their children went to St. Bridget’s Catholic School in Glassboro, NJ to give them a catholic education and provide a strong Christian foundation in each of his children.
Phil’s life will be honored and remembered at a privately held funeral with family and friends. Please keep Phil Fazzio in your prayers and pray for his soul.
