John Longobardo

August 15, 2020

John Longobardo (Big John), 58 of Clementon, passed away with his family by his side on August 15, 2020. John was born in Manhattan, NY and moved with his family to South Jersey where he graduated from Southern Regional High School in 1980. John was everyone’s best friend and was known for his big heart and kind soul. You could find him serving drinks and serenading his customers at the lobby bar in the Hilton casino where he worked for 17 years (formerly Golden Nugget and Bally’s Grand). His love for the Beatles was infectious and taught us that love truly is all we need. He was the NY Giants’ number one fan, made sure everyone knew so and remained loyal to them through thick and thin. “Big1J” was an Xbox legend and gained several friendships with people around the world through the gaming community. John loved all animals, especially his dog, Bruiser, who he will tell you was his best friend. His greatest love by far was his granddaughter, Gabriella. His smile lit up the room when they were together. He is predeceased by his parents John and Dorenda (Congdon). John is dearly missed and forever loved by his daughter, Jillian, and son-in-law, Ron, his two brothers, Vincent Longobardo and his wife Judy, and Robert Longobardo and his wife Lourdes; his sister, Dorenda Vail and her husband Bruce, his nieces and nephews, Joe and his wife Cher, John, Jodi and her husband Malcom, Lara and her husband John, Kristina, Bruce and Sara; and the love of his life, his granddaughter, Gabriella Rose. We invite relatives and friends to join us for a celebration of life ceremony on Sunday, October 4, 2020 at 2 pm at the Harry Bowen Memorial Field, 143 Main Street, Port Republic NJ 08241. Inurnment with his family will take place privately. Memories and condolences may be shared with the family at www.wimbergfuneralhome.com. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in John’s memory to Pet Pals of Southern New Jersey, PO Box 228, Grenloch, NJ 08032.
