Nick DiGesualdo passed away peacefully in his home on April 22, 2018, at the age of 86. He was born March 31, 1932, to Nick and Mary DiGesualdo in Frederick, Colorado. He married Lucille Edwards in Las Vegas, NV, on January 3, 1953. They were married until her death on July 4, 2008. He served in the Korean War.

They had three children, Tracy DiGesualdo, Steven DiGesualdo, and Patricia Sinclair. Nick’s life-long love was Trap Shooting, in which he still won competitions in his class up until his last few months when he could no longer hold up a gun. After retiring, he wintered in Southern Arizona, traveling from Trap Club to Trap Club, competing in the sport. He also loved the outdoors, hunting, and fishing. He is survived by his three children; six grandchildren, Tayler (Shane) Fitzgerald, Derek (Daniella) Williams, Daniele (Ben) Gifford, Devyn (Kyle) Davis, Dillon Sinclair, and Sean Sinclair; great-grandson, Aiden Gifford; brothers, Tom (Gloria) DiGesualdo, and Bob (Hazel) DiGesualdo; numerous nieces and nephews; and his furry companion, Gus, all of whom he loved with all of his heart. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Russell DiGesualdo; sister, Lucille DiGiallanardo; and son-in-law, Lane Sinclair.
