Tony Catalfo passed away on Thursday, May 11, 2023, at age 69, in Boca Raton, Florida, after bravely battling cancer with strength and grace.
Tony was born on September 24, 1953, in Rochester, New York, to parents Anthony and Ida Catalfo and was affectionately known as Nene. Tony was blessed with a full and loving family-filled upbringing and was the youngest of four siblings.
As a young adult, Tony willingly worked at his father's car dealership. Working alongside his father and learning from him was an immeasurable gift that established the foundation for his lifelong accomplished career in the automotive industry, with the bulk of his experience and expertise at Cadillac. Tony was the definition of a car aficionado.
Tony was living in Florida when he met his true love Judi; she became his wife on September 7, 1997. He was devoted to Judi and adored her from the dawn of their relationship. Tony eagerly gained two teenage children, Brian and Nicole, who he loved and embraced wholeheartedly. He and Judi had a zest for life, and their relationship overflowed with joy and adventure. Tony and Judi spent days hand-in-hand relaxing on the beach, enjoying Saturday night dinners out on the town, going to the movies, taking Orlando vacations, and traveling internationally. However, his happiest times were spent at home with his family, eating his homemade pasta and meatballs and enjoying a glass of wine.
Tony's kindness, generosity, approachability, helpfulness, and gentle demeanor exemplify his pleasant personality, making him loved by all who knew him. Tony was a friend to everyone and an enemy to no one. He was the embodiment of what most aspire to be; an honorable human being.
Tony was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, uncle, and friend. Leaving behind to cherish his loving memory are his beloved wife, Judi, and two children, Brian Iannitti and wife Rosemary; Nicole Daly and husband Jason; and his grandchildren, Jake, Gia, Scarlett, and Maxwell. Also left behind are his sister Rosalie Tagliente and husband Peter, his brother Richard Catalfo, and many nieces and nephews. Tony was preceded in death by his parents, Anthony and Ida Catalfo, and his brother David Catalfo.
Tony's eyes and smile were illuminated by a light that continues to radiate in our hearts and will shine on in our everlasting memories of him.
In lieu of flowers, we ask you to kindly make a memorial donation in Tony's name to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital by calling 1-800-608-8795.
