It is with devastating sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Arthur D. Giampolo, beloved father, grandfather, brother, veteran, entrepreneur, and former Vice President of JAG Enterprises. To know Arthur is to love his generous heart, experience unceasing laughter and treasure his unbridled pride in and loyalty to his family and friends. A Memorial Mass was held on Saturday, August 4 at St. Philomena’s Church in Livingston, where Arthur served as an altar boy for many years. Born in Newark to John and Rose Giampolo, Arthur grew up in Livingston and graduated from St. Benedict’s Preparatory School in 1963.
