February 11, 1958 ~ February 15, 2025 

Nadienne Catafago (nee Vincent), born in Brooklyn on February 11, 1958, and raised in Wantagh, passed on February 15, 2025 in the North Merrick house she had made home with husband Jacques since 1988.

Nadienne was an attorney by education, but what she really was at heart was a great lover of all people, her dogs, the Atlantic Ocean in Point Lookout LI, the Pacific Ocean in Oahu, Hawaii and the Gulf of Mexico in Naples, Florida, and she treasured travel and flowers of all kinds.

She had an incredibly huge heart, a genuine modesty, kindness and intelligence. Her first priority was expertly raising two wonderful children Eric and Krista, and making a magical home for her family, while still managing various business interests, quietly and super-efficiently.

Nadienne was beloved by all who she encountered, never making anything about herself, seemingly unaware of her great physical beauty, always sharing a kind word or deed and never gossiping or seeing or even suspecting the bad in anyone or anything , a wonderful quality which made everyone around her a better person. Nadienne was the epitome of goodness. And she was A LOT OF FUN to be with.

Nadienne is survived and terribly missed by her husband Jacques, her mother Katherine Vincent, her brother Kevin Vincent and her children Eric and Krista and their spouses whom she also adored, Emily (Phillips) Catafago and Philip Sakaba. She joins her father, Michael J. Vincent, in Heaven.
