Carmel Society where he did bingo on Sundays, helped cook on Tuesdays for club meetings and for the Thursday spaghetti dinners that were open to the public. He was an avid fan of the New York Yankees and Giants which made for an interesting household because Faith is a Red Sox and Patriot fan. Besides Faith, Vinny is survived by his son, Brian Zarcaro of East Hartford and numerous valued friends. He also leaves his nephews, Anthony Afflitto and Michael Afflitto and niece Regina Moren, sisters-in law Mary and Jean Zarcaro.
