Dominick Joseph Marangi of Blauvelt, NY passed away peacefully at home on July 8, 2020 at the age of 77. Dominick was born in East Orange, NJ in 1942 and attended East Orange High School where he met the love of his life, Markes Marangi (nee Ditta). The couple married and moved to Rockland County, NY where they raised three sons, Dominick, Michael and Sal.
Dominick and Markes ran a successful sanitation business 50 years. Through this business, his sons learned that hard work and dedication are the keys to success. Dominick has left behind this legacy for his sons to continue in his memory.
All who knew Dominick experienced his generosity, humor and kindness and many will fondly remember seeing him at numerous diners over the years with a cigar in his mouth after his morning coffee. In recent years, the joy of his life was his family, including his four grandchildren whom he cherished.
Dominick is survived by his son Dominick and his husband, Matt, his son Michael and his wife Kim, and his son Sal and his wife Alexis. His four grandchildren are Alex, Matthew, Olivia and Jayden.
