BREVARD COUNTY • VIERA, FLORIDA — Victor (Vic) Chiariello, 86, passed away on January 21, 2023, after a brief illness, and leaves behind his beloved wife, Fran (née: Urbanski) of 65 years.

He is survived by a brother, Donald Chiariello; two sons, Joseph V. (Spouse, Karen) and Steven M. (Spouse, Jackie), and daughter Susan Dolan (Spouse, Michael); grandchildren Vincent, Jeffrey, Alexander, Lindsay, and Samantha; and two great-granddaughters, Charlotte and Elle.

Vic was a Baltimore native graduating from Forest Park High School in 1955 and married Fran in 1958.

Already a proud member of the U.S. Navy Reserves, he proceeded to hold several jobs in his early married years to support his growing family and attended night school to obtain his BS in Accounting, from the University of Baltimore in 1973.

Vic’s resume included employment with Burroughs, Martin Marietta, Maryland National Bank, and the University Of Maryland, College Park, where he retired in 1998.

He also had many fond years of selling real estate for Grempler Realtor as a part-time agent.

Vic and Fran relocated to Florida in 2000 to lead a very active and full retirement. Never one to sit still he kept both his body and mind active.

An avid and ferocious reader, he consumed books and traveled with his wife extensively through the U.S. and Europe on hiking and walking tours.

Vic gave much to his family to hold as cherished memories, however, all that met him will remember his love of golf, fishing, pickleball, bicycling, and most of all, his smile and always, always, holding Fran’s hand.
