The following obituary comes courtesy of Farmer Funeral Home:

“George Delmarmo, Jr., 79, of Brick, N.J., died on December 31, 2015.

“Born and raised in Belleville, he resided on Mill St. for many years. When he married Doris, the love of his life, he lived in Bloomfield for 30 years where they raised 3 daughters. In 1998, they moved south to Bayville, N.J. before settling in Brick, N.J. After earning his undergraduate degree in Accounting at Fairleigh Dickenson University, Rutherford, N.J., George started his professional career as an accountant for JH Cohn and later was Controller for Tappans Co. While working, he attended Seton Hall Law School at night earning his Juris Doctor. He was a member of both the New Jersey and New York Bar Associations. For many years thereafter, he ran his own law practice, George Delmarmo, Jr., Esq.

“Of the many scholarly and pedestrian pursuits, travel and writing might have been his greatest passions. Whether with family, friends, or even alone, George went all over the U.S. and the world, including stops on all 7 continents. Those in his life shared and reveled in these adventures from both his spoken and written word. Enjoying his books and plays as a result of his life, love, and work is something treasured he will leave behind for us.

“He is predeceased by his beloved wife, Doris (McLellan) and sisters, Florence Delmarmo and Nellie Mauriello. Surviving are his loving daughters, Mary Forlenza, and her husband Emanuel Jr., Ann Delmarmo, and Andrea Hicks, and her husband Jaime; cherished grandchildren, Amanda, Marina, Gianna, Emanuel III, Victor, Samuel, Vivian and Alistair; sisters, Angela DiBello, Louise Grena and Victoria Aufiero; many nieces and nephews and many friends, old and new.

“In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting donations be made in his honor to the Belleville High School Theater Arts Company, 100 Passaic Ave., Belleville, N.J.”
