Jay A. Garibaldi, 59, of Benicia passed away Tuesday in a local hospital following a long illness. He was born in Vallejo but has always called Benicia his home.

He was a volunteer with the Benicia Fire Department for over 40 years and was a lifetime member of the Solano County Fireman’s Association and prior to his death Jay was the longest standing member of the Benicia Volunteer Fire Department. Jay was also the local handyman, more than willing to drop what he was doing to help family and friends fix, repair or lend a helping hand. Jay is survived by Lynda, his wife of 32 years; daughter Bethany (Vinnie); son Andrew; grandson Jacob; sisters Joanne Miller and Nancy Darr; brothers Roy Garibaldi and Danny Cesena; and all the friends who were considered family. Visitation will be from 4-7 p.m. Tuesday at Passalacqua Funeral Chapel. Services will be private due to Covid restrictions. The family prefers donations be made in Jay’s name to the ASPCA (www.aspca.org).
