Obituary

PHILLIP J. TALARICO was called home on September 21, 2021. He lived a grand life- a life that checked all

the boxes. He was married to Mary (nee DiVincenzo) for over 60 years until her passing. He was a

devoted son of Florence (nee Guzik) and Joseph Talarico. He and Mary had 3 children. The first, Laura

Maistros (nee Talarico) was taken far too early in life (Larry and wife Chris). The second, Phillip Jr.,

(Dawn), (Becky-deceased). And the third, Teri Hembree, were all taught that family was everything.

To Phillip's 11 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren, he was larger than life. He leaves his

grandchildren, Jennifer Bernzweig Glenny (Troy), Jessica Bernzweig Haydu (Dave), Brittany Kirk (Jon),

Phillip Jerome (Alexandra), Alex Maistros (Sarah), Courtney Maistros, Zak Hembree (Emily), Morgan

Hembree, Tylor Wylie, Nichole Wylie and Christopher Wylie with this life lesson…"always keep a positive

mental attitude…PMA!".  His hope was that his great grandchildren Julian Glenny, Westley Glenny, Luke

Maistros, Tate Hembree, Phinn Talarico, Lilly Haydu, Hannah Haydu, Elenor Maistros, Gauge Wylie and

Cullen Wylie all remember that "LIFE IS GOOD" (a phrase he would utter often and years before it

became popular).  Cherished brother of Dolores Sciaulino (Frank, deceased) and Joe Talarico (Barb) and

Brother-in Law to Gloria and John Vaccariello.  He was a commercial realtor and developer for over 60

years in the Cleveland area.  As an avid horse racing fan, one of his annual traditions was to attend the

Kentucky Derby with his friends, which he did for over 50 consecutive years.  Through his kindness,

Phillip leaves this world a better place than when he joined it. He was known to all as someone who

always made everyone feel good and someone that countless people turned to for help in their darkest

days knowing he would never hesitate to step up to lend a hand.  He gave to many charities and causes.
