IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Nov 3, 1935 — Nov 5, 2025
Robert Joseph Alito passed away peacefully on November 5, 2025 at the age of 90. He was raised in New Orleans and resided in Laplace, LA.
He served as Sergeant in the United States National Guard for 9 years. He played baseball through his youth and continued on to play semi-pro ball until an injury to his knee occurred. He loved the outdoors. He traveled to many different states to hunt. His happiest times were spent hunting, fishing and playing cards back of Blind River with his buddies from the Joe Bourgeois Camp. He was also an avid golfer playing in his backyard at Riverland Country Club and participating in many golf tournaments with friends. Professionally, he was the owner and president of Metal Graphics, Inc. that serviced the architectural and industrial marine industries with graphics products across the United States and other countries. His legacy still continues today. He was a loving father devoted to his family and wanting to continue parenting
until God called him home.
He was preceded in death by his daughter (Lisa Alito Grisaffi), his mother (Ruth Felicia Triay Alito), his father (Emile Alito, Sr.), his brother (Emile Alito, Jr.), his sister (Rosemary Alito Swiber), and his loving and respected companion and friend of 60 years (Joycelyn Blank Alito).
He is survived by his daughter, Lesli Alito Hauge (Darryl), his grandchildren Anastasia Felicia Hauge, Analiese Florence Hauge, Carmelite Jean Hauge, Sarah Ruth Peneguy and Troy Grisaffi, Jr., nieces and nephews and his dear friend Genevieve Soileau. The family is deeply grateful to the doctor, nurses, aides and Chaplin of the Heart of Hospice (Gretna). Thank you all for the compassion and care
given to the patient and the family.
In leu of flowers, simply do a good deed for someone, and hope they pay it forward.
