Floyd FENOCCHIO Obituary

FENOCCHIO, Floyd W. Memorial Service for Floyd W. Fenocchio former Superintendent of the Davis Joint Unified School District, and former resident of West Sacramento. The community is invited to a memorial service in honor of Floyd W. Fenocchio at 5:00 p.m. on Friday, January 30, at the Brunelle Performance Hall at Davis Senior High School, 315 W. 14th Street, in Davis, California. The service will be led by Bob Dunning, good friend and columnist for the Davis Enterprise newspaper. Fenocchio was born and raised in West Sacramento, graduating from Clarksburg High School in 1956. He then graduated from Sacramento State University in 1960 and began his teaching career in Sacramento, moving into public school administration in 1967. He was principal of several schools in Winters and Davis before being promoted to Associate Superintendent of the Davis Joint Unified School District in 1978. He served as Superintendent twice as an interim, and permanently from 1996 until his retirement in 1998, after 38 years in public education. The memorial service is open to everyone and provides an opportunity to remember Fenocchio, who died on December 21, 2014, and his passion and dedication to Davis schools and the community, as well as strong ties to the West Sacramento area.

Our deepest Sympathy to the Fenocchio Family. We just recently became part of the Davis High School "Baseball Family." Mr. Fenocchio was such a welcoming person and inspiration. He was at every game, keeping stats and score. He was watching his grandson, Daniel play ball and always wishing all the boys on the team good luck. We are so sorry to hear of your loss. His presence will be missed.
Hunter Jury and Family,

Mr. Fenocchio was my 5th grade teacher at Sierra View Elementary School in North Highlands. He was a really good teacher and expected nothing but your best, so we gave it. I really enjoyed having him as my teacher and have always remembered him. RIP.

I met Floyd when he was the assistant superintendent of the Davis School District. I was a starving college student working as an on-call substitute custodian and they sent me to every school in the district as well as the district office where Floyd worked. Floyd had a coca cola bottle collection in his office with bottles from all over the world written in different languages. Floyd always had time to say hello to everyone no matter who you were. He was a kind and friendly man. May he rest in peace.
