Nicholas DiCroce Obituary
Nicholas "Nick" A., Jr., age 85, on April 17, 2025, of West Chester, PA.
Nick was a graduate of the St. Thomas More Class of '57. He was an avid fan of the Philadelphia Phillies and Eagles. Nick enjoyed cars, horse racing, and cooking the best Italian meals for his family.
Most of all, Nick loved spending time with his family more than anything in the world. The holidays around "Pop Pop" were something special, especially Thanksgiving, where his famous Italian stuffing and turkey carving stole the show. He loved a meal around the table, hanging out at the beach, cooking crabs in the summer, a nice boat ride, and being around the ones he loved.
Predeceased by parents, Constance (nee Luciani) and Nicholas A. DiCroce, Sr., and his siblings, Michael, Albert, Rose Trevisan, and Sister Mary.
Survived by his wife, Sheila (nee Ruda) DiCroce, his three daughters, Debbie Tamburri (Richard), Genine Jensen (Michael), and Jackie Sharkey (Sean), his eight grandchildren, Matthew, Marissa, Gina, Nicolette, Brooke, Liam, Ryan, and Kayla, and his siblings, Viola Sassa and Joseph DiCroce.
Relatives & friends are invited to his Viewing Friday, April 25th 9:30 AM – 10:45 AM followed by his Funeral Mass 11:00 AM ALL IN CHURCH at Saints Peter and Paul Parish 1325 Boot Rd, West Chester, PA 19380. Interment Saints Peter and Paul Cemetery.

Nick was the ultimate gentleman. I met him in 2011 when I started working at Berrodin Parts Warehouse in Drexel Hill. He was always enthusiastic about his job and one of the best at it. Strong as a mule he never wanted help. When I found out his age I was stunned. He stayed in great shape and was always smiling with an up beat attitude. I had a special fondness for this amazing fellow. May you rest in peace Nick among our Lord and the dearly departed. Till we meet again, love you buddy!
