Anthony DeFelice Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Ruffenach Family Funeral Homes - Drexel Hill on Dec. 10, 2025.
Anthony DeFelice

"Tony"

1961 – 2025

Anthony DeFelice "Tony", age 64, of Drexel Hill passed away December 8, 2025. He was predeceased by his parents the late Louis J. and Norma J. (nee Dintino)DeFelice. He is survived by his sibilings, Anita (the late Edward) Miller, Lisa (Frank) Scaven. Also survived by 6 nieces and nephews and 10 great nieces and nephews.

Tony had many roles in his life: beloved son, brother, uncle and great uncle, friend, babysitter, caregiver, machinist by trade. In his later years, he would often be referred to as the "mayor" of his community- everyone knew and loved Tony. He could be found singing Frank Sinatra at karaoke, watching wrestling, reading Stephen King, or most often showing off his incredible memory through storytelling of family memories. His presence will be tremendously missed by all who knew him.

Relatives and friends are invited to his visitation Monday, December 15, 2025 beginning at 10:30am at Ruffenach Funeral Home, 4900 Township Line Road, Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026 where his Funeral Service will follow at 11:30am.
