Jerome J. "Jerry" Pasquarella, age 90, husband of Dianne (Reese) Pasquarella of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, February 28, 2023 in his home with loved ones by his side. Born in 1932 in Philadelphia, he was a son of the late Stella (Maffei) and Jerome Pasquarella.

Jerry graduated from Villanova University and entered the US Army to serve during the Korean War. He retired as Vice President of The Franklin Mint, a company he thoroughly enjoyed working at for nearly 40 years where he was loved by all of his coworkers.

Jerry was an extremely avid Philadelphia Eagles fan, attending his first game at Shibe Park and a season ticket holder since 1958 when the Eagles moved to Franklin Field. His passion for the Eagles was instilled in his children at a very young age. That devotion to the team has carried on with his grandchildren and even his great-grandchildren.

Jerry had an upbeat, kind and positive demeanor. He was charming, funny and had a great sense of humor and was a true gentleman. Jerry was a brilliant man who loved nature and the arts, collected art, enjoyed traveling the world, appreciated many types of music, loved good food (especially Italian) and whose favorite movie was "Casablanca." His favorite place was sitting on the beach in Stone Harbor, NJ. Most of all, Jerry loved time spent with his family.

In addition to his loving wife of 26 years, Jerry is survived by his four children: Jerry (Donna) Pasquarella, Christine (Russell) Williams, Donna Zielke and Bruce (Alexis) Pasquarella; step-son: Jared Della Penna; nine grandchildren: Derek and Brent Pasquarella, Andrew and Anna Williams, Kristin Manchin, Stephanie Beatty, Dylan and Wyatt Pasquarella and Milana Della Penna; ten great-grandchildren; and former spouse: Joyce (Painter) Potts. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his siblings: Gus Pasquarella, Florence Faulkner, Claire Murphy and Jean Jeitner.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Jerry's name to the American Heart Association, PO Box 840692, Dallas, TX 75284-0692, www.heart.org/donate.
