On Tuesday, February 16, 2021 Jesus decided Gary A. Iacobacci’s work on Earth was done. He called him Home. Gary was the youngest of 4 children born to the late Frank and Rose (Spezzaferra) Iacobacci on August 17, 1956. Born in Newark, he lived in Stephen Crane Village and attended Abington Avenue Grammar School. When he was 8 years old, the family moved to Belleville. In 1970, they moved to Bloomfield. Gary graduated Bloomfield High School followed by R.E.T.Z Institute in Nutley. He began a career in the medical field as a Medical Equipment Technician fixing blood machines in hospitals and doctors’ offices. Eventually, Gary was bitten by the community service bug. He served as Councilman in Bloomfield for 2 terms beginning in 1990-1996. He continued with public service helping many successfully run for different political offices.
