Obituary of William A. Imperial

Beloved Father, Grandfather, Owner of Imperial Realty, Magician William A. Imperial, 65, who resided in Randolph, NJ and was formerly of Livingston, NJ, passed away on March 13th 2015, peacefully, in his home. Raised in Livingston, William - known as Billy by friends and family - was a truly charismatic and talented man. By the time he was age 13, he was already a skilled magician and was performing professionally at large public events, parties, charities, hospitals and political conventions. He was often written up in the local paper for his unbelievable talent with magic. He graduated Livingston High School in 1966, and always known for his humor (and his spot-on mimicry), was voted Class Clown by his fellow students. William settled with his family in Randolph, NJ, turning to real estate, and establishing Imperial Realty Partners. William was truly unique. Larger than life with a powerful personality. He was always funny, was a brilliant businessman, profoundly intelligent and had an artist's eye. He was deeply loved and will be painfully missed by his family,friends and tenants. William Imperial was truly, one of a kind. A wake will be held Tuesday, March 17th, 5pm-8pm at the Tuttle Funeral Home 272 State Route 10, Randolph, NJ. A memorial service will be held the following day at 11am in the same location, followed by a procession to Gates of Heaven Cemetery, 225 Ridgedale Avenue, East Hanover, NJ. William is survived by his wife Jolene, his son Dean, his daughter Leah and her husband, Bradey, 2 grandchildren, Preston and Parker, his brother, Robert, several extended family members and friends and his cats, Booja & Liza.
