Paciello , Larry V.Larry V. Paciello died unexpectedly of heart failure at his home in Boca Raton, FL on March 18, 2017. Larry was born on July 4, 1949 in Wellsboro, PA to Dr. Vincent X. and Doris Paciello, who predeceased him. He attended public schools in Wellsboro and Ithaca, graduating from Ithaca High School and thereafter attending Ithaca College. Larry's lifelong work and passion was painting and his art was shown in numerous exhibitions and galleries in central New York, New York City and Boca Raton. Almost as important to him was cooking as he derived great pleasure from feeding his many friends and family.

A celebration of his life will be held in Ithaca later in the year.
