George Mancuso

 I wrote my ex-husband's obituary bio last night:

George Mancuso, of Tommy’s Pizza in Throgs Neck, a long-time resident of Little Italy in the Bronx, died on Thursday August 6, 2020 of complications from diabetes at the age of forty-nine.

George is survived by his mother, Carmela Mancuso (nee LoBue), his sister, Rosalba Mancuso, his son, John and step-daughter Elizabeth Kelly. He was preceded in death by his father, Rosario.

George began work alongside his uncle Gaetano at seventeen and served as an oven man. He enjoyed motion pictures and travel, his favorite destination was Disneyworld.

The services for George  will be held on Tuesday, August 11, 2020:

Visitation: 8:30am- 10am at Balsamo Funeral Home

3188 Westchester Ave, Bronx, NY 10461

Funeral Mass: 11am at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church

627 E 187th St, Bronx, NY 10458

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital.

It is hard to believe my son's father died. They were best friends and my son loved his father so much. This is the hardest thing I have ever done as a parent- helping my children grieve this huge loss, while I myself grieve. Rest in peace, George.
