Vicki Pace Capecci

With deep love, cherished memories, and heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Vicki Capecci, who left this world in the early morning hours on Tuesday November 25th, after a courageous and hard-fought battle. Vicki was the beautiful, patient, and devoted wife of 53 years to the late Umberto “Bert” Capecci, with whom she shared a lifetime of laughter, partnership, and unwavering love. Today, they are reunited once again.

Vicki is survived by her devoted children, Diane and Anthony, his loving girlfriend Myriam and by the absolute light of her life — her treasured grandson, Michael Ierano, who held a special place in her heart. She is also survived by her loving sister Wanda and husband Jim; her loving brother Tom and wife Terri. As well as her loving brothers and sisters in-law; John and Jayn, Frank and Eileen, Louis and her best friend/partner in crime Caryn!! Also many cherished nieces and nephews, all of whom carry her spirit forward.

From an early age, Vicki shined brightly as a gifted multi-sport athlete at William Tennent High School, where her talent, dedication, and leadership earned her a well-deserved place in the school’s Hall of Fame.

In 1967, fate stepped in at New Look Car Wash, where she met Bert—the love of her life. Their story grew into a lifelong partnership filled with devotion, family, and countless memories that shaped the foundation of their home.

Vicki spent many years as a stay-at-home mom, raising her children with an unwavering presence, steady support, and endless love. Later, she embraced her creativity and passion for people as a Nail Technician, where her artistry and warm, fun-loving personality made her a favorite among clients. She then found joy as a teacher assistant in a Montessori school, where she thrived while helping children learn, grow, and discover their world.

Above all else, Vicki’s greatest joy was her family. She was their biggest fan—never missing a game, school event, milestone, or moment that mattered. Her laughter, energy, encouragement, and pride surrounded them every single day.

Her legacy is one of devotion, creativity, and boundless love. She will be remembered for her warmth, her humor, her strength, and the special way she made everyone feel truly seen and cared for.
