**PARKING AVAILABLE DIRECTLY OPPOSITE THE FUNERAL HOME IN HARRISON MUNICIPAL GARAGE. WALK IN - WALK OUT LEVEL. FREE EVENINGS AND WEEKENDS.**

Ferdinando Paparatti of Harrison, NY passed away tragically November 19, 2022 at the age of 71. He was born May 4, 1951 to Raimondo and Rosina Paparatti in Rosarno, Reggio Calabria Italy. He immigrated to the United Stated at 23 years of age. He was a talented stone mason for the Mamaroneck Board of Education for 25 years.

His greatest pleasure was spending time with his wife Giuliana who he deeply adored, his children and grandchildren, all of whom he cherished and brought him the ultimate joy.

He enjoyed being out in nature, whether hiking in the woods or walking by the beach.

All who met him instantly felt his open heart and genuine smile as he’d welcome them into his home. He had such a unique giving spirit to each person he met. He was a wonderful husband, father and grandfather. His presence will be greatly missed.

He leaves behind his loving wife of 49 years Giuliana Paparatti. His children, Emanuela (Jose) Gavidia, Raimondo (Jennifer) Paparatti and Luca (Megan Haley) Paparatti, and his 5 grandchildren, Mia, Marco, Josiah, Hannah and Giovanni. He was predeceased by his parents Raimondo and Rosina Paparatti and his brother Silvio Paparatti.
