With solemn reverence, we commemorate Nicholas Crescent Amodeo of Clarksville, Pennsylvania, whose life came to an end on March 18, 2025 at the age of 69, leaving behind cherished memories. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family. You may also light a candle in honor of Nicholas Crescent Amodeo or send a beautiful flower arrangement to the funeral service.

As Nicholas departs from this earthly realm, his essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Nicholas may no longer walk beside us, his spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Nicholas leaves behind.

He is survived by: his children, Domenico C. (Julia) and Luciana F. Amodeo (Simon Peter); his wife Domenica Raffaela (Russo); his grandchildren, Leonardo, Massimo, Danylo and Neyla; and also, Alice Amodeo, Marian Winn and Catherine Amodeo.

“Nick epitomized the motto God, Family, Country. He loved God with all his heart. He loved family the same way. He idolized them. He bragged about his family all the time. He served in the Army, serving admirably as a civilian even after (finally) retiring. His and Domenico’s love story is a guideline to marriage we should all follow – they are more than a team, they are soul mates. Nick is with the Lord and waiting for us to catch up to him. Nick is an amazing with an amazing family.”

“In loving memory of Nicholas Crescent Amodeo, May God give you comfort in your time of grief. Nick was a great man who selflessly served our Nation for decades. He befriended me and mentored me when I first got to the Pentagon back in 2000. He helped me navigate PA&E and we spent great times talking Yankee baseball. I know that he's in a much better place cheering on the Yankees. They will need his support this year more than ever. All the Best, Dave”

Naomi Verdugo wrote a sympathy message

“Domenico, I worked with Nic for a number of years. Thinking about him brings a smile. His sense of humor lightened the mood. His deep knowledge of math, statistics, and the arcane budget process shed light where we needed it. His kindness made us all feel a part of the team. His love for you, his children and his grandchild (Leobardo, if I recall correctly) was apparent. He always kept us up to date on the many accomplishments and activities of the family. I will miss him. Naomi Verdugo”
