Nunzio Joseph Ingrassia was many things during his life -- son, brother, husband, friend. But the role he loved the most was father. When his son needed him, he was always there, freely giving whatever he had in order to help his only child. Nothing brought him greater joy than playing baseball with his son and his son's friends, spending countless hours pitching and hitting despite being worn down from work.

He formed unbreakable bonds with his siblings thanks to his strong sense of family. He loved being around people and was almost always the life of the party. His presence is irreplaceable, but the mark he left on others, whether they were family or acquaintances, will live on.
