Real Housewives of New Jersey stars, Teresa Giudice, Joe Gorga and their families said their final goodbyes to their beloved Nonno, Giacinto Gorga, in a private ceremony. Giacinto passed away April 3rd at the age of 76. A Page Six source noted, โhe had been sick for a while.โ
Teresa took to Instagram to share her wishes. Joe shared the same photo and comment, “Today we set you free, fly high to Mommy ๐โค๏ธ๐๐๐ป.”
Nonno’s seven grand kids released doves as Italian music played in the background of the ceremony. The devastated family added flowers and a new photo to the Gorga family mausoleum with his late wife, Antonia.
Teresa’s estranged husband, Joe Giudice, honored his father-in-law via the ‘gram, since his deportation to Italy in late 2019. “Salute ๐ฅ๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐น๐ Thank you, I will forever be grateful. It is because of you that my girls know how to cook pasta, eggplant, and how to drive (lol). Thank you for always being a great grandfather and FIL. You will be greatly missed by all of us especially because your absence was never seen, but you taught us to not to be afraid and never fear the future! My girls are strong from our great team effort! Today, I honor you for helping support my girls dreams.”
