David J. Marasco

David J. Marasco of Milford, and formerly of Lordship, Connecticut, passed away peacefully on February 23, 2023 at the age of 66 after a courageous battle with cancer. Born July 20, 1956 in Bridgeport, CT, he was the only son and child of the late Edward and Rosemary (Lavorgna) Marasco.

Graduating from Stratford High School, Class of 1974, Dave continued on to the Monroe Engineering School where he mastered the art of manual drafting of technical documents. Dave then entered the Tool and Die trade where he became a founding partner, President, and Owner of West-Conn Tool and Die, Inc – a precision tooling and manufacturing company now located in Shelton, CT, from where he had retired in 2018. Dave’s passions outside of work were limitless throughout the years. Rebuilding cars and motorcycles, hiking, scuba diving, cross country skiing, summertime on the island of Martha’s Vineyard, and World War II history were some of his favorites.

In addition to his beloved wife Laura (Pinciaro) Marasco, Dave is survived by his children, Amy (Dan) Miller and Jake (Caroline) Marasco; stepdaughter, Bianca (Matthew) Cuddy; grandchildren, Benjamin and Annabelle Miller, Griffin and Margaret Marasco, and Adriana Cuddy; his “ride-or-die” best friend, Marc Provenzano; the mother of his children, Debra (McCuen) Marasco; and his two beloved dogs, Alba and Bruno.
