Justin T. Marciano passed away at his home in Ocean City on Wednesday July 31, 2013. He is preceded in death by his father Joseph Marciano, his mother Frances Zollo, his sister Dolores Sena, and his beloved wife Phyllis (Colacicco). He is survived by his brother Joseph (Jacqueline Dietrich); his children Justin (Deborah Nardi), Joseph (Sandra Rodenbaugh), Mark (Jody Shields), Juliet, Michael (Kara Carlin), and Stephanie (Rusty Carfagno); his grandchildren, Joseph David (Lauren Hilton), Adrienne, Jacob, Jesse, Gabrielle, Michael, Carly, Libby, Rachel, Luca, and Dominic; and his great-grandchildren Kayla, Giavanna, and Joseph.

JTM was an amazing person. Dedicated and
hard working in his career but, most importantly, he was totally devoted to his family. I saw that on a daily basis as his secretary for eleven years. His family always came first. Through the years we kept in touch. He was so proud of each of you and your families. You were the joy of his life. He will be greatly missed and always remembered.

I am saddened to learn of Justin's death. Mr Marciano hired me in my first job after college. He was a great mentor and manager of people. The things I learned at MONY served me well my entire working career. It was an honor and pleasure to have been associated with Justin.

my thoughts are with the Marciano family. I am so happy I had the priviledge of visiting with him in July in his favorite place, Ocean City. I constantly refer to him in my insurance career and he was the one that constantly motivated me. What a kind man and great father and grandfather. I will miss JTM greatly.
