Anthony DiPasqua, age 74, of Brooklyn, NY died on Saturday, February 18, 2023.
Born in New York City, he was one of Anthony and Anne (Macioci) DiPasqua’s three children. He grew up at 51 Catherine Street on the lower east side.
After graduating high school, Anthony took the New York City Police Department test. He faired well on the test but he was one of many who wanted a job in law enforcement. Consequently, it was going to be a very long time before they called his number. Undaunted by this reality, Anthony shifted gears and joined the United States Navy. Stationed in Lakehurst, NJ, he proudly served for four years. Upon his return to civilian life, his number came up with the police department and he served as a corrections officer with the NYPD for 25 years until retirement.
Outside of his work as a corrections officer, Anthony’s most greatly-enjoyed pastime was health and fitness. It truly was a lifelong passion. He believed in living and eating in a healthy manner and being strong. He even worked out with Lou Ferrigno – the Incredible Hulk!
Anthony was predeceased by his parents Anthony and Anne (Macioci) DiPasqua and his sister Lucy DiPasqua. He is survived by his brother Frank and wife Maryann DiPasqua of Wayne, NJ, his two nieces: Lisa DiPasqua and Allison DiPasqua-Shiffner and husband Eric, and his great-nephew Ryan and great-niece Taylor.
