Paul M. Lo Presto

With great sadness we announce Paul Lo Presto, 66, of Endicott, NY (formerly of Fort Lee, NJ) passed away at home on Saturday, November 9th, 2024.
Paul was a retired Pressman and a union member of Local One, Amalgamated Lithographers of America.
An avid collector of Palisades Amusement Park memorabilia, Rat Fink, Cracker Jack, and all things vintage. Paul also had a love for vintage classic cars and trucks, drive -in movie theaters, and scary movies. A perfectionist who could take a worn piece of wood, see through the age and restore it to its original beauty.
Paul was the life of the party; he loved to make people laugh.
Paul is survived by his loving and devoted wife of 27yrs Margherita Calcagnini, his two beautiful nieces Amanda Kopel and Sabrina Farrell and her family who knew him as “Uncle Tudie”, his mother Rose Marie Lo Presto, mother-in-law Mary S. Calcagnini and several cousins and friends from NJ.
He is predeceased by his father, Paul C. Lo Presto (2017) and his younger sister Dawn Kopel (2012).
A Funeral Mass will be celebrated 11 am, Monday, November 18 at St. Anthony of Padua Church 306 Odell Avenue, Endicott. The family will receive friends at church Monday, November 18 from 10 am until mass time at 11 am.
In lieu of flowers, expressions of sympathy in his memory can be made to Union Volunteers Emergency Squad.
