Domenic Verducci

Domenic Verducci, 94, passed away peacefully with his family and dog by his side on March 5, 2026, in Ada, Oklahoma. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, he was the beloved son of the late Antonio and Della Verducci.

He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Amelia “Molly” Verducci, and later by his wife, Grace M. Verducci. A proud U.S. Army veteran who served during the Korean War, Domenic worked for more than 25 years as a store manager for Zayre and Ames Department Stores before retiring.

Domenic never met a stranger. Known for his warm smile and friendly nature, he found joy in building model boats, airplanes, and cars. He was a devoted father and grandfather who proudly supported his children and grandchildren in all their endeavors. In retirement he enjoyed traveling, remained a die-hard New England Patriots fan, and loved watching football. Those who knew him will remember his kindness, his sense of humor, and the many stories he shared with family and friends.

He is survived by his children, Thomas A. Verducci and his wife Susana of New Braunfels, Texas, and Valerie R. DeAngelis and her husband Brian of Ada, Oklahoma; stepchildren Michael J. Pesare and his wife Maida Conner of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and Dr. Elisa S. Liberto and her husband Tom Cauchon of Narragansett, Rhode Island; grandchildren Virginia and Christina Liberto, Brianna R. Stinnett and her husband Jackson, Kaylee M. DeAngelis, and Chloe R. Verducci; brothers Henry Verducci of Providence, Rhode Island, and Anthony Verducci and his wife Kathy of Johnston, Rhode Island; sisters Anna Schepisi of Providence, Rhode Island, and Carol Cardarelli and her husband Al of Johnston, Rhode Island; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family members, and friends, including his dear friend Arthur Steinkritz.
