HERKIMER – Mr. Eugene “Gino” Campagna, age 76, a lifelong Herkimer resident, passed away unexpectedly on Monday evening, October 12, 2020, in the privacy of his home, with his beloved wife, Sue, at his side.

On June 18, 1966, Gino was wed to the former Sue Snyder at St. Anthony’s Church in Herkimer and together they shared in a loving and devoted union of over fifty-four years. The two were inseparable and always did for one another without hesitation or complaint. Even in the toughest of times, when Gino’s health was impaired, Sue never left his side.

Subsequently, Gino was employed with Harry Enea in the finance department and as a funeral associate for the Enea Family Funeral Homes for many years. Gino and Sue were longtime active members of Sts. Anthony & Joseph Church in Herkimer where Gino served on many committees and dedicated much of his time. He was devout in his Catholic faith, never missing mass, and was a volunteer and former board member of Herkimer County Catholic Charities. In his younger years, Gino served as a Herkimer Pop Warner football coach. He enjoyed sitting on his porch, puffing a good cigar and tending to his expansive and beautiful train collection. Gino leaves behind his beloved wife, Sue; his brother, David Campagna of Herkimer; numerous cousins, nieces and nephews; with special mention of Gino’s great-nieces, Dakota and Myka, whom he spoiled and loved as if they were his own granddaughters.
