David Elwood Calderone's Obituary
David Elwood Calderone, a beloved son, brother, and friend passed away September 9th, 2024, at the age of 63. He treasured his identity as a caring son, supportive brother, and a doting uncle, expressing deep love for his parents and finding immense joy in sharing adventures with his nieces and nephews.
David leaves behind a lifetime of cherished moments, laughter, and smiles. A child at heart, he was happiest when surrounded by family. His infectious joy for life made him a pleasure to be around, whether enjoying good company, playing a game of UNO or Phase 10, or entertaining with his goofy impersonations. David embraced his hobbies with the same lighthearted spirit, particularly his love for robotics, which fascinated him and sparked his creativity.
With a kind and deeply caring soul, he had a unique ability to make others feel heard and appreciated, even in the subtlest of ways. He cherished life's simple pleasures, whether sharing a meal, watching a movie, or spending time with loved ones, always creating genuine and meaningful connections.
David was preceded in death by his parents, Dorothy and Salvatore Calderone. He is survived by his siblings: Anthony Calderone (Robin), Rick Calderone (Pauline), Terri Lodge (John), Greg Calderone (Dyanna), Chris Calderone (Gabi), and numerous nieces and nephews. He leaves behind a legacy of laughter and love, and will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who were fortunate enough to have known him.
