Russell Allen Casolare

He has now moved on to be with his late wife, Debbie (Revette) Casolare and his son, Sean Casolare, who he lost as a baby.

Russ was born in Syracuse, NY on October 4, 1947, and was the son of the late Pauline Davis-Casolare and the late Frank Casolare. Russ graduated from North Syracuse High School and went right into the U.S. Military.

He served six years in the Marine Corp. and 16 years in the Army Reserves. While in the reserves he was also employed with Onondaga County Water Authority as a draftsman in the engineering department. In his youth Russ enjoyed lifting weights and was a Golden Gloves boxing champion. He always enjoyed being with his family and friends. Russ had an infectious laugh that nobody would forget.

He is survived by his loving daughter Kari (Brian) Greer, grandchildren, Jack and Marissa Greer, and four siblings, Gloria Feldman(Cliff), Betty Dennis(Jim), Michelle Peirce(Royal), and William Casolare (Dawn).

The family wishes to extend thanks and gratitude to Suncoast Hospice for making his last days as peaceful as possible.
