Philip Rapone Obituary
Throughout his life, Phil showcased his extraordinary talent by crafting beautiful homes as a General Contractor/Realtor. Each structure stands as a testament to his dedication, precision, and passion. By his side in life's journey was his loving wife of 35 years, Cathy. Together, they raised two adored children, Ashley (Seth) and Brandon. He was preceded in death by his beloved mother, Valentine. He is survived by his step-father, Joe Sr., and brothers, Andrew (Sandy), Joey (Tammy), and Kevin (Miranda). Phil's quirky sense of humor was a source of endless joy and laughter in their household. His deep love for 60's music, particularly the Beatles, played as the backdrop to many cherished family memories.
The memorial service will be held on Saturday, October 7th at 3:00 PM at the First Baptist Church Chapel: 135 Magnolia Avenue, Merritt Island, FL 32952.
The legacy Phil leaves behind-both in the homes he crafted and the memories he created-will forever be celebrated by his family, friends, and the countless lives he touched. Rest in peace, Phil. Your spirit will always be with us.
