An announcement about Ralph Mancini from our firm

 

We are deeply saddened to announce that Mancini•Duffy founder Ralph Mancini passed away Saturday night.

 

Ralph was a loving parent and husband to his family, an inspiration to everyone he worked with, a source of great reassurance to his clients, and the object of genuine respect among his colleagues in the industry.

 

His was the proverbial American success story—he went from humble beginnings to heading a firm that helped change the way some of the most important companies in the world do business, all in a handful of decades.

 

We here at Mancini•Duffy loved him dearly. You couldn't help but love him. He will be sorely missed.

 

For those wishing to pay their respects, Ralph's wake will be held at the Thomas F. Dalton Funeral Home at 412 Willis Avenue in Williston Park, NY on Wednesday from 7 PM to 9:30 PM, and on Thursday from 2 PM to 5 PM, and 7 PM to 9:30 PM.

 

The funeral will be held on Friday at 11:15 AM at the Church of St. Aidan at 505 Willis Avenue in Williston Park, with the burial to follow at the Holy Rood Cemetery in Westbury, NY.
