Obituary of Antonio Ignoffo

Antonio “Nino” Ignoffo passed away peacefully surrounded by his adoring family on Monday, June 29, 2020 at the age of 77. Born in Petralia Sottana, outside of Palermo, Italy he immigrated to the U.S. in 1966. He built a career in the aerospace industry, and in 1982 founded Aviojet Corporation in Upper Saddle River. His distinguished life and career was centered around his strong sense of family, friendship, and generosity. He valued these things above all. A perfect day to Antonio was sitting at a table with his family by the sea, enjoying a fresh catch and a bottle of wine. He was a long time parishioner at Church of the Presentation. Antonio is survived by his loving wife of 51 years Carmela Ignoffo; son Anthony L. Ignoffo, his wife Pamela; daughter Deborah C. Rizzo, her husband Joseph; sons Jerry A. Gatto, his wife Gloria, Paul N. Gatto, his wife Christine, and grandchildren: PJ, Jordan, Catherine, Cadence, Dominic, Xavier, Luisa and Mason; and sister Anna Maria DiLisciandro.
