Pasquale (Lillino) Spilotro, 65 passed away on April 30, 2017 at Lutheran General Hospital in Park
Ridge, IL from injuries sustained during a fall. Pasquale was born on December 11, 1951 in Triggiano
Bari, Italy. During his teen years, Pasquale moved to Chicago, IL where he met his wife Francesca,
they married and had two children Michael and Agata. In 1993, Pasquale relocated to Palm Harbor,
Florida to pursue a career with Publix Supermarket in hopes of providing a better future for his family.
After a long career with Publix, he retired in 2016 after dealing with multiple illness earlier in 2015. In
addition to working at Publix, Pasquale also free-lanced as videographer for special events and
performed remodeling work for friends and family. Some of his hobbies and interests included
listening to music both American and Italian, watching movies and learning about the latest electronic

who cared deeply for his children, grandchildren and family. Pasquale left us all so suddenly and he
will be sorely missed until we meet him again in heaven.
