MADISON - Vito S. LoCricchio, age 55, of Madison, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, Oct. 30, 2023, at UW Hospital and Clinics. He was born on April 15, 1968, in Warren, Mich., the son of Vito M. and Sandra (Morris) LoCricchio.

Vito graduated from Fernley High School in Fernley, Nev., in 1987. He married Anita Hanson on May 7, 1994, in Reno, Nev. Vito worked as an operations manager for WaltCo Inc. Prior to that he had been employed by UPS for 28 years.

Vito was an avid Detroit Lions fan for his entire life. He enjoyed watching old Westerns and classic TV shows, bowling, and listening to 80s music. He loved spending time with his family, traveling, and cruises, and will be remembered for having a sweet tooth and being a big kid. He was loved and cherished by all who knew him. Most of all, Vito loved his role of “pop pop.”

Vito is survived by his wife and best friend, Anita; sons, Noah (Rosa) LoCricchio and Brayden LoCricchio; grandchildren, Amarany Estrada and Adelinna LoCricchio; and sisters, Terri Fletcher, Pamela (Todd) Sylvester, Sandra (Luke) Spencer, and Patrina (Brad) Drum. He is further survived by Anita’s family, whom he thought of as his own. He was “Favorite Uncle Vito” to countless nieces and nephews. Vito was preceded in death by his parents and father-in-law.

A celebration of life will be held at BOWL-A-VARD, 2121 E. Springs Drive, Madison, starting at 6 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 18, 2023. A second celebration of life will be planned for a later date in Reno, Nev.
