Dominick Rossetti, age 93, of Wayne, NJ and formerly of Howard Beach, NY, passed away on Wednesday, March 4, 2015.
Predeceased in 1988 by Helen (nee Vuono) Rossetti, loving wife of 43 years; beloved father of Paul and wife Valerie Rossetti ; proud grandfather of Jason and wife Amanda Rossetti, and Anthony and wife Nicole Rossetti; adoring great-grandfather of Anthony, Isabella, and Sophia Rossetti; adored uncle of Rae and Michael Papania, Lydia and John Nienstedt, JoAnn and Richard Posik, Vincent and Tina Rossetti, Edward Manzoni, Susan Como, Vincent and Tessa Rossetti, Stephanie and Dr. Frank Mastrianno; and much-loved great uncle to all their growing families!
Dominick was predeceased by his sister Sadie and husband Edward Manzoni, and his brothers: Pat and wife Mary Rossetti, Joseph and wife Helen Rossetti, and Louis and wife Adeline Rossetti.
A decorated U.S. Army veteran of World War II, Dominick served in Panama guarding the Panama Canal. He was honorably discharged in 1944, married two months later and, aside from a short stint working in a factory, spent 40 years working for Eastern Airlines, Flying Tigers and Seaboard World Airlines at Kennedy Airport, New York City. Above all else, Dominick valued his time with his family. Up until this winter he was an avid walker and he was passionate about and admired for his smooth ballroom dancing which he started decades ago with his wife Helen. He danced until the age of 91, stepping out each week most recently with his lady-friend Olga.
In lieu of flowers, those planning an expression of sympathy in Dominick’s name are asked to consider the American Cancer Society, NJ Chapter, 20 Mercer Street, Hackensack, NJ 07601, or Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, P.O. Box 27106, New York, NY 10087-7106.
