Obituary of Louis Demetro
Louis Demetro, 58, of Monroe Township passed away at Mount Sinai Hospital on Wednesday, July 17, 2024. He was born in Minnesota, raised in Absecon and had lived in Brooklyn, Levittown and Wantagh before retiring to Monroe in 2021. Louis was a dedicated engineer at NYC Health and Hospitals where he obtained 37 different types of licenses. His passion for life was evident in everything he did. He was a beautiful soul with a big heart, and his love for dancing, vintage cars (especially his beloved 1969 Chevelle SS), music, good food, playing poker and Texas Holdom with the boys and vacationing with his wife, brought him immense joy. He was also a proud Freemason at Matinecock Masonic Historical in Oyster Bay, New York, where he found friendship and camaraderie. Louis was a loving husband to his wife, Nancy, whom he met on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn and shared 39 beautiful years of marriage with. He leaves behind a legacy of love and laughter.
Louis was predeceased by his parents, Miller and Stella Demetro; brothers, James Demetro and Thomas Demetro and grandson, Philip Thomas. He is survived by his wife, Nancy Demetro of Monroe; two children, Louis Demetro of Long Island City and Jessica Stumphf and her husband, Philip of Lehigh Valley, PA; four grandchildren, Logan, Kyle, Tiffany and Shane; and many extended family members and friends.
