Tommy DeVitto Obituary

Tommy DeVitto Jr.

Irondequoit - Suddenly September 4, 2020 at 66. Predeceased by his parents Tom and Nella. Loving father of Mitchell and Sydney, brother of Nella (Lawrence) Neeck and Don, uncle to Alessa (Patrick) Cummings, Evan and Anna DeVitto and best friend to his beloved dog Carly.

Tommy lived life on his own terms. His carefree spirit, infectious humor and giving nature will be remembered and sorely missed by all who knew and loved him. Tommy was always there to lend a hand to those who needed him, and his good deeds will not be forgotten by those he touched.

Services will be held privately. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in his memory to Lollypop Farm.

I remember how Tommy treated his beloved Bearnise Mountain dog, Carly, like a human....would bring her to
his jobs like a good friend. He was such a good natured guy and I miss seeing him very much!

My earliest memory of Tommy was when he and my son,
Peter, spent time in my attic setting up a train table with a village, trees and people and a HO train set....this was in grade school. In much later years, Tommy was always there for us when we needed help running our home. Always had western music playing when we were together......Always will miss him!

Tommy was a kind, gentle soul, and would always take the time to talk to you no matter what was going on, Tommy was always ready to help others any time!
He was a realy funny guy too, if you ever had a chance to talk and share a laugh with him, it was always a good time!

I will remember Tommy mostly for his love of his kids and family, his face would light up when he spoke of Sydney and Mitchell, and of course he beloved dog Carlea.
Family get togethers were a must for Tommy and his kids, sharing love, laughter and great food!
Tommy's presence, friendship, gentleness and laughter will be greatly missed by all who have known him, may his spirit always surround his kids, family and friends with love, comfort and fond memories.
