"You were a perfect father & I know you & mommy are cooking a feast & dancing to Bocelli today, watch over all of us & always protect us all," Giudice concluded. "Love you Papa."

On his Instagram account, Gorga chose to repost a throwback snap of their father. In the pic, Giacinto is seen sitting beside his wife, Antonia Gorga, who passed away from pneumonia in March 2017.
