Dominic J. Buonpastore, on March 17, 2015, of Blackwood. Age 88. Beloved husband of Mary (nee Venturella). Devoted father of Joseph Buonpastore (Patricia), Robert Buonpastore and Kathy Lucchetti (Joseph). Loving grandfather of Joseph (Christy), Robert, Capri, Tara, Dominique and Valentina. Proud great-grandfather of Michaela, Joseph, Christian and Juliet. Dear brother of Jemma Ermilio, Marge Locantore, Rocco Buonpastore and Anthony Buonpastore. Brother-in-law of Eleanor Buonpastore and Cass Venturella.
Dominic grew up as 1 of 11 children in a South Philadelphia Italian family. His favorite thing to talk about was when he was in the service. But his greatest love was his family, especially his wife Mary who he was married to for 65 blessed years. He loved music and played guitar in a band and also with his brothers.. When he moved to New Jersey he took great pride in his garden, which was abundant with the best tomatoes and basil. Dominic was the most unselfish person, never putting himself before anyone else. He couldn’t do enough for others. Dominic was sweet and gentle and tender hearted. He will be forever in our hearts and sorely missed by all who knew him.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend his viewing Monday 8:45 – 10:45 am at Our Lady of Hope Parish, St. Jude’s RC Church, 402 Black Horse Pike, Blackwood.
