CIAMPAGLIA, RICHARD N .April 8, 2017. Predeceased by his wife Carol (Bellak), father to Tracy and Marilynn Ciampaglia, Pee-Pop to Sophie and Nik, Pop and Pop-Pop to his extended family of Michael and Christopher and their children, brother to Albert (Folgore), Thomas (Sheila), James, Ralph (Janet), Edward (Roseann) and Maryann Mason (Steve) and many cousins, nieces and nephews. Early on he was known to his friends as "Richie Cadillac" for his fast cars and stylish presence, it was how legends were born. Rich was the only one our mother would allow to call her Liz and as much as he was a presence in South Phila. through the years he always listened to his mother (ok, maybe not all the time) and those were his defining times. He worked hard and played hard or maybe it was the other way around, he would mesmerize everyone around him with his stories that were so bold we often wondered if he was tugging on our leg. His infectious humor and kindness captured the attention of everyone who knew him and his support to anyone in need at any time, that was the lasting impression he left us. There is always another story to be told to another generation, it was witnessed over these trying days through the tears of many young relatives and friends who shared his goodbye. Relatives and friends are invited to his visitation Thursday 10 A.M. to 1 P.M. at THE ROGERS FUNERAL HOME, 1426-30 S. 3rd St., Phila. Interment will be private at Holy Cross Cem.
