Ignazio J. Rosso

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ignazio J. Rosso, 85, of Staten Island, New York, on Wednesday, February 19, 2025. Born on Staten Island to the late Philip and Josephine Rosso, Ignazio was a proud graduate of New Dorp High School.

A veteran of the United States Army, Ignazio enjoyed a successful career, ultimately retiring as a Vice President at the Bank of New York.

He was married to the late Antoinette Rosso, with whom he shared many years of love and devotion. He is survived by his sister, Vincenza “Ginger” Rosso, and his brother, Charles Rosso, along with many sisters-in-law, nieces, and nephews, all of whom loved him dearly. Affectionately known as “Uncle Brother” by those closest to him, Ignazio was a man of deep faith. He was a devout Catholic who attended daily Mass.

In his leisure time, Ignazio loved playing tennis, tending to his garden, and following the New York Yankees, a passion he held for many years. His kindness, generosity, and unwavering faith were evident to all who knew him.
