Lionti, Angelo age 74 of Wayne at rest in Lincoln Park on November 2, 2020. Beloved husband of Antonette "Tita" (nee DiGangi) Lionti of Wayne. Loving father of Jennifer Carr and her husband John of Wayne and Sabrina Rosendahl and her husband Daniel of Wayne. Dear brother of Vincenza Marseu of Wayne, Joseph Lionti of Woodland Park and the late Rosario, Nunzia, and John Lionti. Grandfather of Peter Angelo Carr, Matteo Carr, Colin Carr, Jackson Rosendahl, and Mark Rosendahl. Also survived by numerous nieces and nephews. Born in Gela, Sicily, Italy, he came to the United States in 1968 and lived in Paterson, West Paterson and Totowa, before moving to Wayne. He was a Machine Operator for Zenith Textiles in Paterson, for thirty-five years and also worked at Plast-O-Matic in Cedar Grove, for ten years before retiring four years ago. Angelo was an active member of the Scoglitti Society in Elmwood Park, and enjoyed spending time there with friends. He traveled to many places but nothing could ever compare to his "happy place", his hometown of Gela, where he visited every summer. He cherished time with his family, especially his five grandsons, who always brought him joy and made him smile. He will be greatly missed.
