Obituary of Nancy Anne Giaquinto
Nancy Anne Giaquinto (formerly known as Nancy Anne Pemrick), age 70, of Galway, NY, passed into eternal rest on Thursday, September 16, 2021. She was born December 16, 1950 in Troy, NY to the late Mr. and Mrs. James & Rosemarie Pemrick.
Nancy spent most of her childhood in Watervliet, NY until her family moved to Amsterdam, NY in 1966. She then moved to Galway, NY in 1979 after marriage and the birth of her first child. She resided in this home until her passing.
Nancy graduated from Bishop Scully High School in 1969. She went on to work for the New York Telephone Company and later earned her Real Estate license and became a vital part of The Trevett Group in Ballston Spa, NY up until the time of her death.
She was united in marriage to Victor H. Giaquinto of Amsterdam, NY on January 31, 1976. She then dedicated her life to her husband and their three children as a devoted wife and a loving mother and homemaker. Nancy had a vibrant social life and was also very active in her children‘s activities in school and beyond. Her smile and sense of humor made her the life of any event and she was loved by all she came into contact with.
Everyone who knew her will know, she always had a cup of coffee in hand, a few scratch off cards in her pocketbook and a Bingo bag in the back seat of her car. She loved dancing, singing, the Saratoga Racetrack and lazy summers enjoying the sunshine in her pool. But more than anything Nancy loved spending time with her family and friends. She was a genuine, caring, loving heart and always put everyone else first up right up until her last breath.
Survivors include her husband, Victor; children Justin L. Giaquinto (Daniel Melleby) of Seattle, WA, Christine Helen Sherk (Brian) of Wilmington, DE, and Karyn Rose Giaquinto Fistonich (Matthew) of San Diego, CA, stepson, Marc D.
