Dominick DeChico “Mickey” age 91 of Haskell died peacefully on Sunday, January 22, 2012 at the Lakeland Health Care Center in Haskell. His death took place while receiving the love and care of his daughter Debbie.

He was born in Paterson and had lived his childhood years in Totowa Borough. Dominic received his formal education in Memorial School in Totowa and then Paterson Central High School graduating with the Class of 1938.

Not long after graduating High School he signed up in the United States Navy.

His first employment was at Bograd’s Furniture Store in Paterson where he learned all about hard work moving and delivering furniture. He later worked for Arrow Carrier Trucking in Carlstadt retiring from work in 1985. As a side job later in his work career he did side jobs most often as a bartender at local taverns in Pompton Lakes and Haskell.

Mickey was gifted in life with an extraverted personality that reached out to others he met that caused him to have many friends.

The most important dedication he had in his life was to his wife Olga and his daughter Debbie. He was a wonderful provider who was always lovingly concerned about his wife and very protective of his daughter Deb. He simply loved his family with all of his heart.

Olga (nee Adzima) DeChico predeceased him in 1995 after having a good and loving marriage for forty-nine years.

Thanks Dad for being such an important and loving part of my life journey as well as Mom’s. You were a great husband and Dad to say the least.

Surviving is one daughter Debra DeChico of Wanaque.
