Carmine Nazzaro

He was an employee of Aristocrat Upholstery for 40+ years and on the side he also did construction work with his brother-in-law, Sam. Carmine was a former member of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Bridgeport, PA. He enjoyed his family, children, garden, and many holidays and meals with his family.
