Domenico Calabro

Domenico Calabro, a devoted husband, father, and pillar of his family, passed away peacefully on May 11, 2026, at the age of 84. Born on July 21, 1941, in Reggio Calabria, Italy, Domenico emigrated to the United States at fifteen, carrying with him a tireless work ethic and a deep love for his heritage. A proud U.S. citizen since 1995, he spent his career as a Teamster, expertly moving heavy machinery with the same strength and precision he applied to every facet of his life.

On April 27, 1961, Domenico married the love of his life, Patricia Mauro. Together, they built a beautiful life and raised six children: Cathy Marchionni (Andrew), Maria Calabro, Monica Alexander (Rich), Pasquale Calabro, Paula Christensen (Tommy), and Frank Calabro (Vanessa).

Beyond his professional life, Domenico found joy in the simple pleasures. He enjoyed fishing and bowling, though some of his favorite afternoons were spent watching the flats and trotters at Yonkers Raceway. Above all, he cherished his role as a patriarch, leaving behind a legacy of love in his 14 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren.

Domenico is survived by his beloved wife of 65 years, Patricia; his sisters, Josephine Bellantone and Antoinette DiGirolamo; and his brother, Battesimo Calabro. He was predeceased by his brother, Vincent Calabro. His presence will be deeply missed, but his spirit lives on in the family he adored.
