Nico A. Novielli

Nico Alessandro Novielli, nickname PoohBear, of Glendale Heights, Illinois, passed away on May 30, 2023, in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois.

Nico was born at Alexian Brothers Hospital in Elk Grove Village, Illinois, to Lino Sr. and Kym (nee Cednick) Novielli on September 5, 1991. He attended and graduated from Glenbard East High School in Lombard, Illinois. Nico worked at Oakbrook Terrace Park District as part of their Parks Maintenance Crew. He married Jordyn (nee Kissee) Novielli on October 10, 2015, in Bartlett, Illinois.

Nico is described by family and friends as being scary on the outside but a big teddy bear on the inside. He loved animals, the beaches, anything Fall related, guitars, and Slipknot. He was kind, caring, and someone who could always make you laugh.

Nico is survived by his wife Jordyn Elaine Novielli; his children Kyndra Ann Novielli, 14, and Tayler Alexander Novielli, 2; his older brother Lino Novielli, Jr. and his wife Krysta Willard; parents Lino Sr. and Kym Novielli; and his two nephews and three nieces. He is preceded in death by his grandfather Lester Francis Cednick, Sr.

Visitation will be Saturday, June 3, 2023, from 1 pm until time of service at 3:30 pm at Salerno’s Rosedale Chapel in Roselle, Illinois, with Rev. Wayne A. Dorsett officiating.  Nico will be cremated.
