Anthony Michael Abbatello

May 15, 1952 - February 26, 2022

Anthony (“Tony”) Abbatello, originally from the Bronx, NY, last residing in Palm Coast, Florida, passed away on 2/26/22 at 69 years of age in Flagler County, Florida, due to complications brought on by pneumonia. Tony had a diverse career from building planes, driving 18-wheelers, to painting, plumbing and construction. For the last 15 years, he did catering. Tony was truly a “jack of all trades.” Tony had a zest for life, an incredible sense of humor, a wonderful love of family and friends, and genuinely enjoyed being around people. He loved playing Italian music while cooking, whether for family dinners or catering large parties. His dessert specialties were enjoyed by all. Tony was a creative gardener and he adored fishing off the pier at Flagler Beach. He just loved life and people - anyone whose life he touched loved him too. Tony is survived by his beloved fiancee of many years, Denise (Cammarata) Yodice, his adoring son, Jamie Ryder, his devoted brother and sister, James Abbatello and Regina Seaman, his loving grandchildren and great grandchildren, as well as Denise’s children and grandchildren. A memorial service will be held at Heritage Funeral and Cremation Service, 4601 East Moody Blvd., G7 Bunnell, Florida, on Saturday, March 26, 2022, at 10:00 am. There will be live streaming of the memorial service for those who cannot attend (www.facebook.com/heritagefuneralandcremation).
