Gabriel A. Bacco

Gabriel “Gabe” A. Bacco, of Monroeville, PA, passed away peacefully on May 4, 2025, at the age of 78.

Born on May 30, 1946, Gabe proudly served his country as a veteran of the Vietnam War. He was a devoted father and grandfather whose greatest joys were spending time with family, especially his grandsons. Gabe loved to spend time with his grandsons, fish, and be outdoors—always happiest when surrounded by loved ones and nature.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Gabriel J. Bacco and AnnaGrace (Smeltz) Bacco, and his sister, Cindy (Bacco) Hoyer. Gabe is survived by his daughter, Deirdra Hammack, and her husband, Josh Hammack, as well as his beloved grandsons, Bryce and Nolan Hammack. He also leaves behind his cherished great-niece and great-nephew, Lexi Mosqueda and Jake Mosqueda.

In honor of Gabe’s life, his family will hold a private celebration of life at the end of the month in recognition of his birthday. No public services will be held.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made to AMVETS, in support of local veterans—an organization close to Gabe’s heart.
