PARISI, Carl J. on November 8, 2011, (58), longtime resident of Fairview, NJ, passed away peacefully at home after enduring a two year battle with cancer. Carl was surrounded by his wife, daughters, many family members, and his favorite nurse Tina and caregiver Louisa. Carl was predeceased by his parents, Carl and Mary Parisi. He is survived by his wife of 33 years, Maria; his 2 daughters, Loredana and husband Michael Gabriele; and Daniela; his grandson Ryan who he loved dearly; many loving nieces and nephews, and many friends. Carl worked at the Winston Towers for 30+ years and was well known and loved by many of the tenants. He will always be their "beloved" doorman. He made friends wherever he went, and was loved by all who knew him. Carl was a huge sports fan, especially Rutgers Football, and could always be counted on to begin the Rutgers chant: R!!!...U!!!!....GO RU! He watched Jeopardy daily with his daughters and always bragged that no one could know more than he did. He was known to be loud and quite a character, but always was the life of the party and knew how to have a good time. Behind his "crazy" persona, he was a source of great wisdom and intelligence. He will always be remembered as a true gentleman, funny, and devoted to family and friends. His humor and energy will be missed by all. " Funeral from the A.K.
