Nancie

Minichiello

It is with great sadness to announce that Annunziata (Nancie) Minichiello, our beloved mother and grandmother, has passed away. She died peacefully in her sleep on January 9th, 2025. Nancie was known and loved by so many during her 93 years. She was a resident of Fort Lee New Jersey for the majority of her lifetime, after being born and raised in North Bergen, New Jersey. She was the daughter of Rocco and Anna Blaso, who founded Union City Embroidery after emigrating from Italy. She is predeceased by her brother Frank Blaso and sister Mary Coppola. Nancie was a student of Holy Angels, a proud graduate of Fordham University, an engaged elementary educator, a loving wife to Nicholas, and a devoted homemaker to Jane, Mark, and David. She was also the secret behind great homemade desserts at her son David's restaurant for more than 20 years. She took great pride in her grandsons Nicholas and Michael, who loved her dearly, and her daughter-in-law, Kelly, her dear nieces and nephews, and precious kitty Bella.
Nancie leaves behind many broken hearts in the wake of her passing and will forever be remembered by her family and friends. During the last few months of her life, Granny was lovingly cared for by the kind staff at Sunrise Assisted Living in Edgewater, New Jersey. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to St. Jude's Children's Hospital in her honor.
