Rocco Carmen Ambrogio, a devoted husband, loving father, and proud Navy veteran, peacefully passed away at the age of 78. He was born in New Jersey and later moved to Florida in 1978, where he became a beloved member of the community through his ownership of The A Team Lawn Service.
He is survived by his cherished wife, Arline Ambrogio, and their children Dennis Ambrogio, Michael Ambrogio, and Dawn Stolz. Rocco’s memory will be forever treasured by his grandchildren, Anthony Ambrogio, Andrew Ambrogio, Rocco Ambrogio, Matthew Stolz, and Patrick Stolz. He is also survived by his sister, Bernadette Terpstra.
Rocco’s legacy continues through his extended family, including his daughter Dawn Stolz’s husband, Jim Stolz, and his son Michael Ambrogio’s wife, Lee Ann. Additionally, his extended family is further enriched by Shirley Ambrogio.

Irish Blessing-
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.
Rest in peace, Rocco. God bless Ambrogio family.
Love, Dean Quinlan and family.

Dear Arline and Family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Rocco was such an amazing, kind, caring person. I am so honored to have had him as such a very special friend for at least 25 years. I have such great memories of Rocco and family going to dinner almost every Saturday night, going on cruise together, twice a year for almost 20 years going down to Sarasota for the weekend with all our friends and families. Rocco, you will be so missed. Love you , my very special friend!!
