Anthony DeMarco Obituary
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Anthony Robert DeMarco, beloved husband, devoted father, proud grandfather, loving uncle and cherished friend. He departed this life surrounded by the love of his family on Sunday September 21, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of warmth, generosity, and unwavering dedication.
Anthony was born February 6, 1961 in Youngstown, Ohio a son of Edward & Betty Graham DeMarco.
He was a 1979 graduate of Wilson High School.
Born to lead and care, Anthony served as a general manager at Graham Stamping with pride and integrity, earning the respect of colleagues and peers alike. When he wasn't guiding his team, he found joy in life's simpler pleasures, casting a fishing line at dawn, setting up camp beneath starry skies, relaxing by the pool in the warm summer weather or enjoying a relaxing round of golf with friends.
His family was his anchor. He relished Sunday spaghetti dinners at his mother's home, family vacations filled with laughter, and every moment shared with his wife, children, and treasured granddaughter. His children knew him as a teacher and a role model, someone who instilled the values of dedication and kindness through example and love.
Anthony was a familiar face at his children's activities and a tireless volunteer in his community, always tending a helping hand where it was needed. His joyful spirit was also reflected in his bond with the family dog, who was a constant companion and source of comfort.
He will be sadly missed, remembered for his warm heart, steady guidance, and the unforgettable impact he made on everyone fortunate enough to know him.
Anthony is survived by his wife Judy DeMarco, son Adam DeMarco, and daughter Sydney (Jacob) Bukovina, granddaughter Michaela Bukovina; his mother Betty DeMarco, his brother Edward (Jan) DeMarco; his sisters Roan Craig, Lori (Bob) Ficorilli, Jean (Frank) Sotlar; Nancy (Michael) Swiatkwich; and Valarie (Jeff) Jones; along with numerous loving nieces and nephews.
