Dominick “Nick” Deleo, 49, of Lititz, lost his courageous battle with cancer on Wednesday, April 17th, 2024 with his dog Kymo and close friends by his side.
Everyone that knew Nick, knew he lived life to the fullest and enjoyed every minute. He enjoyed getting away and especially loved the Keys in Florida. He had a passion for food and was always on the pursuit to update his list of the “5 best cheesesteaks he ever ate”. He was an avid pool shooter and was always there to offer words of advice tohis teammates or anyone else.
Nick was a member of the Ephrata Amvets, the Riverside, the Alert Club,Lititz Springs VFW Post 1463 and he was a SON of the Lititz American Legion Post 56. If there was a fundraiser to be done, no matter the cause, he was always the first to step up to help.
He will be remembered most by his generosity. He had a kindness and loving heart that definitely goes unmatched in this world. He was rarely ever seen without a smile on his face and his laugh will forever be etched in the minds of those who knew him.
Nick was preceded in death by his brother, Mark Latcheran and is survived by his cousin Lenny Deleo and his brothers Pat Bohn, Andrew McEvoy, Ron McBethand his faithful dog Kymo.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, April 27th, 2024 at the
Lititz American Legion from 3pm-7pm.
Our hearts are heavy and broken. The one person who would be able to cheer us up with a smile and a great memory is the one we have all lost. This writing sums it up perfectly. There wasn’t a fundraiser or a cause that he didn’t jump right in to help. We were 2 Penn Manor alums in a world of Warwick grads and we will miss him. Rest easy my friend. You left a huge mark on this world that we will never be able to fill. Hugs and thoughts to his brothers who are hurting the most.
Nick was also survived by his mother Sheree Rael, his father Dominick, his brother Mike, his grandfather Norman, two nephews, one niece, and many aunts, uncles, and cousins. He was preceded in death by his grandparents Alfred and Linda DeLeo, and his grandmother “mum mum,” Rosemarie Heming.
