Fred DeSena Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Village Chapels Inc. on May 30, 2025.
Frederick DeSena was born in Brooklyn, New York, on December 22nd,. He lived a devoted life to his wife, Paula DeSena, whom he was married to for 58 years, his three sons, Joseph, Anthony, and Michael, who he loved dearly. Fred enjoyed nothing more than being with his wife and children, whether that meant being at home, going fishing, or playing stick ball with his boys, they were everything to him. Later in life, Fred welcomed his grandchildren, all girls, Molly, Grace, Ava, Olivia, and Natalia into his life. His grandchildren were the apple of his eye. Fred also was blessed to be able to meet his great grandchildren, Kaison and Mykel, and loved nothing more than to watch them play and laugh alongside him. Fred endured a lot, but met every challenge with a smile on his face and strength for his family. He passed peacefully at home, with his family by his side, nothing less than what he would've wanted.
Fred will be remembered as the kind-hearted, gentle, loving, and most importantly, "smiley" man he was. He will always be the glue to our family and will be missed dearly. To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Fred, please visit our floral store.
