David Louis Marconi

David Louis Marconi, age 74, of York New Salem, PA, passed away at home on January 18, 2026.

David was born in Baltimore, MD on October 18, 1951 and was the son of the late Louis and Jacqueline Marconi. He proudly served his community for many years as a Firefighter, EMT, Hazmat Specialist, and Tillerman (a role which he particularly loved) with the Baltimore City Fire Department, most notably on Engine 29, and later in his career on Truck 21, and was a lifelong member of the International Association of Firefighters. In his retirement, David operated Lynx Lumber in York with his business partner. He enjoyed trains in all forms and was an avid model railroader who spent many hours building layouts and running trains with others who also enjoy the hobby. In retirement, he often volunteered at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, in support of the restoration of steam era coaches.

David is survived by his next of kin, son, David Jr., and his son's wife Michele and daughter Sarah; two daughters and their children; and his siblings, Eileen Eaton and her husband Robert, Shirley Marconi, and Larry Marconi. He was preceded in death by his wife, Daphne.

Funeral services and interment will be held privately by the Marconi Family.
