Chuck Lombardi, 91, of Kenosha, passed away peacefully at his Phoenix (AZ) resort.<\/p>\n
He was the fourth child of Onofrio and Ida (Mattioli) Lombardi, Italian immigrants making Kenosha home.\u00a0 Raised partly by his eldest sister Viola (1918-1994), Chuck was embraced in a loving family of uncompromising love and respect for family and church, which he showed through loving examples daily.<\/p>\n
Clearly enjoying life as the most devoted husband to \u201cThe Love of His Life\u201d Arlene (of Racine), Chuck was richest with his growing family and proud to share.\u00a0 He was the beloved father of five:\u00a0 Lorna Eldred (1959-2024), Deanna (Rod) Pappas, Gina, Charles & Richard \u201cRick\u201d (1964-2014); grandfather of seven:\u00a0 Melanie (Eldred) Walters, Julia (Eldred) Kindred, Melissa, Kimberly & Derek Pappas, Charles \u201cMax\u201d & Richard Lombardi) and great grandfather of eight (Everly, Nash, Elsie & Dax Walters, Shiloh Kindred, and Liam, Luca & Levi Lombardi)\u00a0 Quite aware of the significant loving family he grew, Chuck always had some new family accomplishment to boast about, honest living his best.<\/p>\n
A carpenter by trade, first as a Navy Seabee mastering his craft, and then becoming a proud Kenosha business owner of Lombardi Construction Co., which was his humble way of always putting his name behind his work.\u00a0 Reaching his own standard of excellence, Chuck enjoyed a well-earned reputation for quality workmanship from his clients and all those close to him.<\/p>\n
He took his \u201cquality sells\u201d approach helping his son Rick build his own business, A&R Door Service, which grandson Richard Jr. owns and proudly continues the same Lombardi Legacy.<\/p>\n
Well known for his quick wit and fun ability to tell jokes, Chuck often had folks bursting out in laughter.\u00a0 A favorite, Chuck and Arlene would light up dance floors at weddings, often leading the way as his contagious smile compelled all to dance.\u00a0 He was a proud member of the Italian American Society and Roma Lodge.\u00a0 He also loved a good game of golf, whether playing or watching, and Green Bay Packer games or Wisconsin Badger games were always his pick on TV.\u00a0 Chuck loved volunteering for many organizations, a few being Our Lady of Holy Rosary Church and the Kenosha Achievement Center, so in lieu of flowers, please feel free to donate to the church or KAC.<\/p>\n
Chuck\u2019s daughter, Lorna, passed away suddenly on November 6th<\/sup>, a few short weeks earlier than him.<\/p>\n A memorial service will be held to honor them both on Friday, December 20th<\/sup> at 5:00 p.m. at Our Lady of Holy Rosary Church, 2224 45th St. Kenosha, WI.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Chuck Lombardi, 91, of Kenosha, passed away peacefully at his Phoenix (AZ) resort.
