Robert J. DiPrisco, 51, Norwalk Fisherman

Submitted by Magner Funeral Home

Robert J. DiPrisco, 51, of East Norwalk, Connecticut entered into eternal peace far too soon on July 18, 2013 after a brave battle with lung cancer.  

Robert was an avid fisherman who loved fishing almost as much as his beloved wife, Maria Perez DiPrisco. He was happiest when he was piloting a boat in the middle of the ocean with a fishing pole in his hand.

He is survived by his wife, Maria, his step-children, Carlos, Amanda, Alex and Anthony, and eleven grandchildren. He is also survived by his sister, Janet, and nephew, Alex Sirois. He is predeceased by his parents, Eleanor and John Robert, and his sister, Elaine Sirois. 

He was a loyal husband, brother and friend. He was much loved and will be missed by all who knew him.  

A memorial Mass will be held on Saturday, August 3, 2013 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Thomas Church, 203 East Avenue, Norwalk, Connecticut. To leave an online condolence, please go to www.magnerfuneralhome.com.
