Tony DeMarco,76

July 17, 2021

Carmen Anthony “Tony” DeMarco, 76 of North Adams, MA died at Berkshire Medical Center on Saturday, July 17, 2021.Tony was born in North Adams, MA on July 27, 1944, as son of the late Carmen Joseph DeMarco and Dorothy Ada (Knapp) DeMarco. He graduated from Drury High School. Carmen was employed for fifteen years as a draftsman at Yankee Nuclear Power Plant. After retirement he was employed as a driver for Williams College. was a well known certified professional umpire, working baseball, softball and football in the Berkshires. He also volunteered for many local organizations in the Northern Berkshires and was a member of the Elks Lodge.



Tony was a loving and caring man who would give the shirt off his back to help others. His smile was contagious. On any given day, if you asked him why he was so happy, he would reiterate how grateful that he was able to get out of bed and see another day. An avid Red Sox and Patriots fan, he was always sporting a hat to reflect his love for his teams. He always had a joke ready to tell. It was almost expected that it would be one of the first things he said when he saw you. He loved spending time with his family and friends. Whenever he was with them, he had stories to tell, happiness to share, and he lit up the room. Words can’t express how much he meant to every person he met. He will be missed by many.

This has been a hard one to comprehend. Such a kind person to everyone. He loved sharing photos of his family and grandchildren, but quickly in the next breath he asked about your family. My heart goes to your family, he has certainly left an empty space in many hearts.

I's so sorry to hear of Tony's passing. I worked with him as a teenager and very much looked up to him. He was such a fantastic and funny person and even though I haven't seen him in nearly 20 years I know that would still be true today. I will continue to remember him fondly. I'm so sorry to the family for your loss.

Tony and I grew up as childhood neighbors and friends. He would always see what he could do to help my mom or keep an eye out as my dad worked nights. Apparently he never lost that quality of kindness and helpfulness. The many good memories and friends who loved him will help you all during this upsetting time. ❤️
