DUPONT — Thomas J. Biscotti, 65, formerly of Dupont, died Saturday, June 29, 2019, after a lengthly illness.
Born in Pittston, he was the son of Mauer and the late Dolores (Warunek) Biscotti.
He was a 1971 graduate of Pittston Area High School and a member of Sacred Heart of Jesus Church, Dupont.
Throughout his illness, Tom always maintained a positive attitude and smile on his face. He reflected unyielding patience, perseverance and courage. He suffered silently not knowing what tomorrow would bring. He will be sadly missed by all of those who loved him.
Also surviving are son Dr. Thomas Biscotti and wife Melissa, of Mountain Top; daughters Maura and husband David Kivak, of West Wyoming, and Tia Marie Biscotti, of Dupont; grandchildren Juliet, Thomas, Sophia and Genevieve Biscotti, and Josephine and Dillon Kivak; brother Dr. Mauer Biscotti; and sister Maureen Troynacki.
In addition to his mother, Thomas was also preceded in death by an infant sister.
Thomas's family would like to thank Dr. Ruthkowski and the staff of Highland Manor for their kindness, compassion and excellent care afforded to our Dad during his time there. Also, a special thank you to our uncle Mauer for the love and care that he showed our Dad.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the National Alliance on Mental Illness: 3803 N. Fairfax Drive, Suite 100, Arlington, VA 22203.
