Aurel Allen Villari

July 23, 1945 – April 5, 2026

Aurel Allen Villari passed away peacefully on April 5, 2026, after a brief illness. He was 80 years old.

Born on July 23, 1945, to Aurel and Dorothy Villari, he was raised in New Jersey and went on to build a life defined by intellectual curiosity, dedication, and a deep love of family.

He earned his undergraduate degree from Villanova University and his law degree from Rutgers Law School, and had a successful legal practice that spanned over five decades. To those who knew him, his commitment to his work was matched only by his integrity.

Aurel loved football and baseball, and he took his chess seriously. But what truly lit him up was time with his grandchildren.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Maria Villari, his son Aurel and wife Mandy, his daughter Adriana and husband Jeff, his son Victor, and his two grandchildren, Aurora and Collette.

He will be deeply missed.
