Albert Nicholas Soldano

Albert Nicholas Soldano, 86, of Ardmore, Pa., died peacefully on April 15, 2022.

He was born on Sept. 18, 1935, in Jamestown, N.Y.

He was preceded in death by his parents,

William and Grace Soldano; and by his son-in-law, Alan Scott.

He was married for 62 years to his loving wife, Dianna LaMonica. He was the proud father of William Soldano (Laura), Gracene Sirianno and Charles Soldano. He was beloved by his five grandchildren: Kyle Sirianno (Ashlee), Nicholas Sirianno (Clare), Lauren Sirianno, Austin Soldano (Leslie) and Jacqueline Soldano. He had one great-grandchild: Grace Soldano.

Albert graduated from Jamestown High School in 1954 and promptly joined the U.S. Marine Corps. He proudly served his country and was honorably discharged in 1957.

His career at Marlin Rockwell. TRW, and SKF Bearings spanned 42 years. He was a well-respected colleague of the people he worked with and successfully served in various roles including shop foreman, personnel manager, and model shop manager.

He was a parishioner of Saint John’s Roman Catholic Church.

He was a longtime member of the Boys and Girls Club, the Loyal Order of Moose and the American Legion. He enjoyed playing golf and was a member of South Hills Country Club and Conewango Valley Country Club.

Albert always had a special way with children and babies, likely because he was a kid-at-heart himself. His grandkids will always remember his puns and silly songs. Others will remember the slightly more adult versions of his puns and silly songs.

He brought much joy to the lives of everyone he knew and will always be greatly loved and missed by his family and friends.

We imagine that at the Pearly Gates, Albert will arrive wearing both a smile, his USMC cap and will have a joke or two for Saint Peter.

His burial will be private. A celebration of his life will occur sometime in September of 2022.
