My Brother-Inlaw Vinny who everybody loved with your huge heart and joy for life. I remember those 3 numbers you said out loud for a phone number in your AZ accent " 846" and my Mom was making fun that still lives on along with "Cut The Cake Cut The Cake" My Mom Helen loved you like a son, She would always hug and kiss you. When it was time to go you showed up on Helen Dugo's Birhday in Heaven. I guess you wanted to say "846" Cut the Cake Helen. Thanks Vin you were the Best!!!

Uncle Vinny was all the kids in the family favorite. Growing up I remember sleeping over with Donna and he’d let us get away with anything. Late night swimming, movies, singing loud to music, whatever we wanted he never said no. There was one night Donna and I were up late doing hair and makeup till 3 am and we got hungry I remember going downstairs and uncle Vinny was half awake watching Two and a half men and we asked him for Mac and cheese. I thought for sure he’d say no and ask us why the heck we weren’t in bed, but instead to my surprise he got up and made it homemade not even from the box.  Still the next morning he’d take us out to breakfast and bring us along to his errands and always made us feel like we were apart of his team. I’ll miss you forever angel I love you uncle Vinny - Lexi 

Dear Sweet Vinny~
“ I think the hardest part of losing someone isn’t having to say goodbye, but rather learning to live without them. Always trying to fill the void & the emptiness that’s lost inside your heart when they go.” ~ ? 
 My heart is completely shattered! I just miss you so much.  I miss hearing your voice every day.  I can feel all the signs you’re leaving me, letting me know that you’re  happy & healthy now. I know  that was you a few weeks ago at the splash pad when that toddler started slurping dirty water off the cement. So gross! But, I started laughing out loud and had to look up towards Heaven.  Thank you for letting me know that you’re here with me. 
 I’ll never forget that flour & water fight we got into that night you were making gnocchi, or was it pizza dough?  You started it!  You threw the first handful of flour in my face & my contacts were pasted to my eyeballs.  I grabbed the water hose from the kitchen sink and sprayed you.  Of course you got the hose away from me in seconds because I couldn’t see!  I remember hearing you say, “Let me rinse those contacts out for you!”  as you sprayed me in the face until I was completely drenched!  I can clearly remember there was so much laughter coming from both of us as water was spraying all over that kitchen.  Then all of a sudden we hear this  sound,   “Slurpppppppp!!”  We stop, look down and see the baby slurping up water from the kitchen tile.  There was like 3 inches of water! We cracked up laughing even harder.  I belly laughed for so long!!  Oh my gosh, what a terrible mess we made of the kitchen and the clean up was absolutely horrendous.  But even so, it’s one of the best times and our favorite memory.  I will forever cherish it.  Vinny, you were the sweetest, strongest, selfless, & the most loving man. Thank you for always being there for Austin. Thank you for  loving me like you did.  I’m deeply blessed to have had you in my life.  I love you Vinny! I’ll forever be missing you. ~ T 

When butterflies are around you, it means that the angels are approving your actions and that you are on the right path. It also means that angels are guiding you and that you need to stay faithful. It is also a widely accepted symbolism that butterflies are the reincarnation of souls.

My beautiful brother Vinny, my heart aches that we had to say goodbye. I am grateful for all the time we spent together and cherish being able to work by your side. I will miss you every second of my days and will always have you close to my heart. You are truly the best brother a sister could have. I love you and miss you so much.

44 yrs ago when me and Vinny were teenager's he had Suns tickets I went to my first basketball game. 

He sold me his Mustang my first muscle car 72 Mach 1.

I played my my first round of golf with my first instructor Vinny and birdied the 13th hole.

At the last Dinos on Greenway I ordered my usual sausage pizza this one was off the charts I've been eating Dinos food for over 20yrs Vinny came out and asked me how I liked my pizza with a smile he just knew that he topped himself,  I never forgot that and since always addressed him as Chef Vinny, he started 52yrs ago at age ten working in the family bussiness. Thank You my Brother R.I.P

                                    To My Brother
Vinny, I still can’t believe we had to say goodbye.  Although we knew this day would come, we could never really prepare for this kind of loss. I’m so proud of the fight you gave this, in my opinion you WON!!!! You leaving us on Easter was a beautiful sign from Mom.
I sometimes feel peace knowing you are with Mom and Dad, and so many others. I know someday we will all be together again for eternity!!!!  
I think of you every minute of the day, I cherish all the time we got to spend together and I’m so grateful for the many outings and game nights!!! 
I’ll never forget… 
“Yahtzee”     “It’s Ok”    &   “ I’m Fine”
Love you so much,
Your Favorite Sister
(Shhhhhhh)


















 We wish we could take away everyone’s sorrow and heartache.  Only time will ease your sadness.  Vincent and Anthony, you have so many great memories that will bring you comfort in the coming months and years.  Keep those fond memories close to your heart and know that we will be there for you in whatever way you need.  To the rest of the Marchese family,  our deepest sympathy. 

Love, Mom and Tom

My heart aches for everyone who was close to and loved Vinny, especially my eldest two brothers , Vinnie and Anthony. It's a different kind of pain to watch your siblings lose a parent. Growing up, it always seemed like my brothers were invincible... Nothing could break them down and there was no way that they were going to let anything break me down either. That's the wonderful part about having older siblings, you are guaranteed with protection for life. I think that's what made it so much harder to watch them lose their dad. Something broke them and my "little sister" heart couldn't take it. As brutal and unforgiving of a disease that Vinny endured was, he still persevered and fought until the very end. I hope that truth gives comfort to you all. Vinny always made me feel like I was one of his own children. It takes a special kind of individual to minimize the reality that we were actually a blended family. He gave me two amazing brothers and brought love and laughter to countless others. Rest In painless Peace, Vinny. Please watch over my brothers. 

Dear daddy, i love you more than my heart can hold. you have and will always be my world. I seriously couldn’t of asked for a better dad. Like the song butterfly fly away says.. “you tucked me in turned out the light kept me safe and sound at night little girls depend on things like that brushed my teeth and combed my hair had to drive me everywhere you were always there when i looked back. you had to do it all alone make a living make a home” this song will forever be my song to you because you did everything in your power to make me happy, safe, and successful. i will miss you every second of my days for as long as i live. I could sit here and wish you would be here to walk me down the aisle on my big day, or be in the hospital room to meet your grandkids and i’ll forever wish you would be there physically but i know you’ll be right there with me on my biggest days. what i am great full for is everything you did see, me graduate, start college. I’m also so thankful that we got to have so much fun together on so many trips like to buffalo, NYC, California multiple times. you were such a fun dad, such a kind dad, and gave me the world. I love you daddy. it will always be you and i against the world. butterfly fly away 🤍🦋

To my beautiful brother Vinny,  I will miss you dearly. I am thankful for the time we spent together when you stayed with me. I enjoyed all the things we did together like watching the Suns games, going out to dinner with the girls and I will miss your great cooking and all the meals you made.  Oh yes I will remember all the Yahtzee games we played, we had so much fun. I love you and I will always have you in my heart.  Love Donna ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Memories of family holidays with the cousins!

To the Marchese Family,

We are so sorry for your loss. Vinny put up such a courageous fight over the past 2-1/2 years. I am so glad we got to spend time with him in Florida and Buffalo. He was loved by so many and surely will be missed. 

Sending our love and prayers go out to all of you.


I am so so sorry, my heart goes out to all of you . Vinny was such a beautiful man , the best of the best. I loved working with him at The Cloister in Vegas , he had a beautiful smile and can always make me laugh. I remember when lil Anthony was at the Cloister and we had a packed house , Anthony loved Mac the Knife and wanted me to keep playing it on the jute box , I couldn’t say no to that cute lil face , so I played it at least 5 times before I got that “look” from Vinny behind the bar , I laughed so hard and lil Anthony laughed too so we played it a couple more times !! He made the best Italian rolls and his pizza OMG !! I’m gonna miss you Vin . ❤️🙏🏽🌹

We are so very sorry for the loss of Vinny, We always enjoyed sitting at the football games watching our girls cheer together as well as sharing our cookie recipes ,enjoying a great meal at Villa Deli. A great guy will be missed . Rest in peace Vin🙏
