Anthony Ambrosino, born, March 8, 1968, to Anthony and Margaret (nee Dunn) Ambrosino, passed away, October 7, 2020, after a two year battle with ALS. Anthony is survived by his loving wife and best friend Rachele Ambrosino, beloved father of Anthony, Sonny, Alexandra and Salvatore, devoted son to Anthony and Margaret Ambrosino, and second father to Stephen Biagio Ambrosino. He is predeceased by his brother Stephen. Anthony is also survived by a very large family and many friends. He will be truly missed by all that ever came in contact with him.
He worked as an electrician in Local 3 Union for many years and there was nothing Anthony could not do or fix. He used these talents to help whomever was in need. He was selfless in every way.
Anthony’s other passion was hunting. No matter what was going on, opening day to closing was his time for hunting that he would share with his children and best friends. His family would spend a great deal of time upstate in the house that he built getting ready for hunting.
Anthony started dating the love of his life Rachele back on July 17, 1985 and shared in creating one of the most amazing love stories you could ever hope for in life. They raised four beautiful children. Anthony’s love for his children transcends through them with the love they share with their family and friends. Anthony could not be more proud of them. He coached their little leagues in sports and the family did so much together in such a short period. He would beam with such pride when he would be talking about them and all they were doing.
Anthony’s Christian faith has guided him most of his life. His love for Christ showed in every act of his life. It would come out with his passion for leading young men and women on the field while he was a coach. His impact on his players will last a lifetime. His impact on everyone he met will last a lifetime. There are very few people in life that will leave a legacy like Anthony. He has mentored and led too many to count. There are few people in Howard Beach and beyond that don’t know Anthony Ambrosino. We are truly losing one of God’s greats here on earth.
We hope that all who were ever in his embrace live out their days with him in mind, continuing on his legacy.
