About Us
Benedetto “Benny” Nardolillo was the oldest of eight siblings. Emigrating from Italy, he settled in Rhode Island and soon afterward sent for the rest of his family. Benny established the B. Nardolillo Funeral Home, Inc. on Pocasset Ave. in Providence, in 1906.
His younger brother Angelo Nardolillo Sr., was twenty years younger than Benny. He began to work with his brother until Benny’s retirement from funeral service. In 1954, Angelo Sr. then established the Nardolillo Funeral Home, Inc. at its present location 1278 Park Ave. Cranston. Angelo Sr. operated the Cranston funeral home with his two sons, Robert A. Nardolillo Sr. and Angelo Nardolillo Jr., until his passing in 1980.
The Cranston facility offers elegant design and traditional décor throughout. There are five visitation rooms, and over 10,000 square feet of handicapped-accessible space. The funeral home offers parking for over 180 vehicles, which makes visitor access as comfortable and convenient as
possible.
Robert Sr. and Angelo Jr. continued as second generation funeral directors until Robert Sr.’s passing in 2003 and Angelo Jr.’s retirement in 1989. Robert Sr.’s three sons, Robert A. Nardolillo Jr., David M. Nardolillo and Angelo M. Nardolillo represent the firms third generation in funeral service.
