Silverio Sabatino of the Town of Newburgh entered into rest on Thursday, November 3, 2011. He was 94.
The son of Aniello and Maria Sabatino he was born on February 15, 1917 in Benwood, WV.
Silverio’s only regret was having lost his mother at such a young age. Because of this, his father took his family back to Italy. He lived there until 1939, having apprenticed as a baker. Prior to WWII, he returned to the US and worked in the construction industry, saving to bring his family to America.
In 1956 he returned to Ponza, Italy where he married the love of his life, Anna. Seeking a better life for his family, he opened his first restaurant in 1964 in the Bronx and prospered.
A hardworking man, his family was his life. His only goal was to make a better life for his children. In his quiet way, he helped many people. A loving husband, father, grandfather and friend, he will be truly missed.
Survivors include his wife Anna, at home; son Neil Sabatino and wife Patricia; daughter MaryAnn Kline and husband James; grandsons Silverio and Nicholas; and many nieces and nephews.
