Andrew Bongiorno "POP"

Bongiorno, Andrew "POP"  

(July 17, 1928- June 17, 2015
Andrew went to be with the Lord on June 17. He is preceded by his father and mother, Leonardo and Felicia Bongiorno and sister Antonietta. He is survived by his devoted wife, Eva and his adoring children Pat Mastriano, Michele LiRosi and Andrea Jacquin, along with their spouses. His legacy will live on through his grandchildren. He will forever be remembered by his siblings Anna, Giacomo, Rosetta, Italia, and Angela along with his nieces and nephews. Andrew immigrated to New York from Sicily at the young age of 25 and lived the American dream. He was a self-taught man and successful businessman. His iron working skills made him a true craftsman as the “King of Iron” and owner of Casa Di Ferro in Rio Rancho. His love of singing, a well cooked meal, and a night at the casino was overshadowed only by the love for his family. He was affectionately called “Pop” by everyone and known for his generosity and big heart. He will be missed deeply and will remain forever in our hearts. We love you Pop! A viewing will take place at the Church of Incarnation on Friday, June 19th from 4:00pm to 7:00pm followed by a Rosary at 7:00pm. A Mass of the Resurrection will be celebrated at the Church of Incarnation on Saturday, June 20, 2015 at 12:00pm. To view information or leave a condolence, please visit www.danielsfuneral.com
