It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Stephen Polverino, a beloved husband, uncle, and friend, who passed away on August 4, 2025, at the age of 76. He was born in Newark, NJ to Joseph & Eleanore Polverino.

Stephen dedicated 25 years of his life to his work as an Operating Engineer with Local 825, where he was known for his exceptional skills and meticulous approach to every project. He took great pride in his work, often tackling jobs with careful thought and precision. In addition to his professional accomplishments, Stephen was an avid car enthusiast. His passion for antique cars brought joy to his life and allowed him to connect with many fellow car collectors.
