Daniel Mastronardi Obituary
Binghamton - Daniel T. Mastronardi (DINO) 90, of Binghamton, NY passed away peacefully at the New York State Veterans Home at Oxford, NY on May 13, 2020. Dino was predeceased by his parents Torquato and Josephine Mastronardi, his sisters Marie Carner and Jennie Yevchinecz, daughter Mary Beth (Mastronardi) Martin, and his wife Dolores. He is survived by his children Patrice (Tony) Del Grosso of Ft. Lauderdale, FL; Daniel (Gabriella) Mastronardi of Binghamton, NY; James (Kelly) Mastronardi of Binghamton, NY; Deborah Mastronardi, of Binghamton, NY; Robert (Sue) Mastronardi of Vestal, NY; Linda (Paul) Jones of Endwell, NY, and Susan (Tony) Pease of Afton, NY; 17 Grandchildren and 8 Great Grandchildren. Dino is also survived by his brothers in-law Roger Carner and Sylvy Yevchinecz; nephews Dennis Joyce, Tommy Yevchinecz, niece Karen Mikolasko and many cousins and extended family.
Dino was a Veteran of the U.S. Army and was assigned to the 7867 QM Depot Group in France from 1951 to 1953. He was a lifetime member and former Jr. Vice Commander of VFW 8808 Vestal, NY, and a member of the American Legion Post 80, Binghamton, NY. He was very proud of his military service.
After serving in the military, Dino returned to the Binghamton area and started work at Link Flight Simulation where he worked for 43 years. He enjoyed his position as the company chauffeur escorting and entertaining company executives, customers, and dignitaries. His retirement didn't last long as he subsequently went to work for Maines Paper & Food in a similar capacity for another 10 years.
He enjoyed time with his family especially his grandchildren. Dino spent his summers on his boats The Grand Wazoo and Dino's Dolly on Cayuga lake. He was blessed with the gift of gab and found and made friends no matter where he went. He will be missed.
A special thanks to the staff at the Oxford Veterans Home for their diligent and compassionate care.
Due to the current COVID-19 health crisis, a private viewing and Funeral Mass will be held for immediate family with burial to follow in Calvary Cemetery, Johnson City, NY. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the New York State Veterans Home at Oxford, 4207 State Highway 220, Oxford, New York 13830.

When I think of Dino, I think of some the best times of my life on Page Lake in PA. Wow Dino was a great Host! The Mastronardi family are some of the nicest people I have ever known! There could have been 10 people or sometimes 100 people at the cottage and Dino made sure no one went hungry. He was the nicest most friendliest man I ever met. God bless Jimmy, Bobby, Danny, Debbie. I have nothing but great memories when I think of all of you. I'm smiling now just thinking of Dino. You will be missed.

How could you not love this man. He was smart, funny, personable and told more dang stories that you knew as a kid that they just couldnt be true. Then you grow up and realize that they really were true. Weve been through thick and thin over the past 65 + years. Uncle D, dont let Ma push you around anymore...haha! You deserve your wings, but straighten out your halo. You are sorely missed by your only niece ❤
