Ronald Giordano, age 83, of Penns Grove, was surrounded by his loving family as he went home to be with his Lord and Savior on November 8, 2026.

Ron was born in Salem County to Carmine and Josephine (Martorano) Giordano. He graduated from Penns Grove High School with the Class of 1961. He went on to attend Goldey-Beacom College, where he studied business, and later worked for DuPont.

Ron spent many years in heavy equipment sales, managing D&R Equipment Sales in New Castle, Delaware. He eventually became the owner of his own business, Baron Laser Concepts, in Penns Grove, New Jersey. His work evolved from heavy equipment sales to printer repairs, but one thing remained constant: Ron could fix just about anything. His knowledge, resourcefulness, and willingness to lend a helping hand will be greatly missed. Later in life, he worked at the township office and assisted with Wyshinski’s Bus Service.

Above all, Ron cherished his family. He will be deeply missed by his beloved wife of 57 years, 11 months, and 11 days, Gail Holladay Giordano; his daughters, Nicole Baber (Matthew) and Tracey Haynes (Dale); his grandchildren, Lindsay Sylvestro, Sommer DiPaolo (Michael), Taylor Clark (Salvatore), Molly Matos (David), and Noah Baber (Abigail); and his 10 great-grandchildren, soon to be 11. He is also survived by his brothers, Mickey and John Giordano (Kathy).

In addition to his parents, Ron was predeceased by his son, Gary Sylvestro, his grandson, Jesse Haynes, and his sister-in-law, Gayle Giordano.

Ron was always actively involved in his children’s lives, dedicating time to the PTA and supporting their activities as they grew up. That involvement continued throughout the years as he proudly supported his grandchildren in their extracurricular activities and treasured the family dinners that brought everyone together.

His faith was an important part of his life. Ron devoted much of his time to his church, where he participated in church plays and especially enjoyed taking on the role of King Herod. He was also passionate about local government and believed that, with the right team in office, Penns Grove would be a better place. He took that commitment a step further through his involvement with Faith & Freedom, working to uphold the principles of God’s Word in the political realm.

Ron will be remembered as a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, man of faith, and a man who could fix almost anything. His love for his family, his dedication to his community, and his faith in God leave a lasting legacy that will live on in all who knew and loved him.

May he rest in the loving arms of his Lord and Savior. He will be forever loved and deeply missed.
