Vincent Baldassaro Jr.

July 19, 1950 — December 20, 2017

Vincent Baldassaro Jr. entered into Eternal Life on December 20, 2017. The love of Judy Paternostro Baldassaro. Devoted and wonderful father of Leslie and Jeremy Chenier and the late Parrish Baldassaro Sr. Proud “Pops” and “Popparoo” of Parrish Baldassaro Jr. and Matthew Chenier. Son of the late Vincent and Madeline “Dena” Baldassaro. Son-in-law of the late Sam and Leah Paternostro. Loving brother and brother-in-law of Joey and Sherran Baldassaro, Sharon and Daymond Martin, Tricia and Bobby Hargis, Danny and Lori Baldassaro, Michael and Pearl Paternostro, Cathy and the late Bill Serex and the late J.F. and Mary Thompson. Kind uncle to his nieces and nephews and a genuine friend to many, many people.

He graduated from West Jefferson High School in 1968 and always looked forward to seeing everyone at the reunions. He always worked in the construction field, getting his knowledge from his father who was a carpenter. In 1996, he and Judy started their business: Leslie Homes, Inc. Vincent was always proud of the many homes he built for all of his buyers and the loyalty and relationships between him and his subcontractors that have been with him for so many years.

He was a keyboard player in bands since he was a teenager, playing with “Kingsroe”, “Strictly Business” and “Flip Side”. He always made sure to arrive early so he could set up and have time to socialize before and during breaks with his many friends. Vincent was a kind, gentle man with a big heart for everyone. He enjoyed meeting his friends for coffee in the morning, having lunch with the lunch group and then going for coffee in the afternoon with his cousin, Guy.

Vincent was a parishioner of St. Rosalie Catholic Church and was a member of the St. Rosalie Men’s Club. He was also a member of the Italian-American Society of Jefferson and was inducted into the Louisiana and Westbank Musician’s Hall of Fame.
