Mr. Marshall H. Ciccone

Mr. Marshall H. Ciccone, age 88, passed away on Tuesday, February 10, 2015 at the Faxton-St. Luke’s Healthcare Center with his loving family at his side. Born in Utica on July 20, 1926, Marshall was the son of the late Antonio and Marianna (Consales) Ciccone. Raised and educated locally, he was a graduate of T.R. Proctor High School/Class of 1944. On February 18, 1947 he married the former Patricia F. Nester with whom he shared 61 loving years until her passing on August 4, 2008. For a number of years, Marshall held employment with the New York Central Railroad. He later worked as an Inspector at Kelsey-Hayes Company where he was eventually promoted to the position of Foreman. Marshall, alongside his family and friends, co-owned and operated the Cornhill Restaurant. Marshall was a hard-working, happy, family man who enjoyed interacting with his friends, family, community, and church. He had a warm heart… and hot heels as he danced the jitterbug with his wife at family events! He volunteered his time to serve as a Little League baseball coach and was keen on all sporting events, especially the New York Yankees. He had a good time playing Bingo at St. Agnes Church and a great time calling out the numbers. He was a parishioner of St. Anthony & St. Agnes Church. Marshall is survived by his daughters, Sharon A. Boehlert and her companion, Gary Sutch of Utica, and Roxanne L. Ciccone of Micanopy, FL; his son and daughter-in-law, Marshall J. and Joan Ciccone of Bonita Springs, FL; his grandchildren, Rhonda, Heather, Trevor, Megan, Donald and Carmen, Jared, and Renee; and his great-grandchildren, Dominick Marshall, Ellie Grace, Hatie Catherine, Ava, Allie, and Danielle. He will also be missed by his sisters, Amelia Graziano of Utica, and Clara DePaul of CA; his many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins, and in-laws, John and Judy Nester of NH. He was predeceased by his sister and brother-in-law, Bernadette and Gennaro D’Onofrio; his brother and sister-in-law, Henry M. and Marian Ciccone; and his sister-in-law, Mary Louise Grenafage. The family is grateful to the doctors, nurses, and staff of the Faxton-St. Luke’s Healthcare Center for the compassion and care rendered to Marshall during his stay. Relatives and friends are respectfully invited to attend Marshall's funeral service and Celebration of Life which will commence on Friday morning at 11:00 at St. Anthony & St. Agnes Church where his Mass of Christian Burial will be offered by Rev. Mark Kaminski. The family will receive visitors at the conclusion of the Mass. Expressions of sympathy in the form of donations may be directed to the American Heart Association; envelopes will be available at the service. Interment will take place in Holy Trinity Cemetery at the convenience of the family.
