Michael's greatest love and joy in life was the beautiful family he created with his loving wife of 50 years, Stella Di Venere (Née Delmedico). Proceded in death by his son, Marco Di Venere, his memory proudly will live on through his devoted daughter Daniela Di Venere-Tincher (David), his grandchildren, Domenic and Delila Di Venere-Tincher, his sister, Angela Ungaro, brother, Joe Di Venere, and many loving nieces, nephews, family, and friends.
