We are sad to announce that on February 8, 2022, at the age of 68, Ciro Pappalardo (Staten Island, New York) passed away. Family and friends are welcome to send flowers or leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Angelo and Maria Pappalardo; his brother Pasquale Pappalardo; and his nephews, Joseph Fazzino and AJ Pappalardo.

He is survived by: his children, Alisen and Casey; his grandchild Casey; his nephew Bianchi; his friend Jonn Piscopo; his wife Pauline Derwin; his son-in-law Michael Azzato; his grandchildren, Ciro and Celina Azzato; and his siblings, Joe Pappalardo, Jerry Pappalardo, Tina Bianchi, Rose Zucca, Jessie Ippolito, Clara Fazzino and Anna Glynn. He is also survived by many friends and to his plethora of nieces and nephews.

When I was sick from COVID-19 back in 2020, he sent food to my house countless times, and behind the scenes, he sent food to hospitals for staff during the peak of the pandemic.

Buddy Wightman lit a candle

“When I read the wonderful tribute to Ciro in the Advance, I chuckled at what I thought was hyperbole calling Ciro the star of our softball team. Then I realized the description was not an exaggeration. He really was the star--in more ways than one. I deeply regret not staying in touch with Ciro since our youth, but he always remained close to me in my heart. Ciro made the world a better place for all those he touched and I suspect his family will carry on that legacy.”
