Marco Philip Tremarello, 91, former long-time Fairbanks resident, passed away Sept. 1, 2023, in Bradenton, Florida. Marco was born July 20, 1932, in Utica, New York, son of the late Joe Sr. and Rose Tremarello.
Because his father was in the military, Marco lived many places while he was growing up, including Illinois, Texas, South Carolina and Tennessee. In 1950, his father was assigned to Ladd Airforce Base (now Fort Wainwright) and the family joined him there. Marco began working at the base power plant and later the water treatment plant. He retired in 1987 having completed a 37 year career.
During his time in Fairbanks, Marco enjoyed square dancing, curling and bowling. He was a devoted fan of youth sports and high school and college basketball.
Marco moved to Bradenton, Florida, in 1992 where he enjoyed warm weather and sunshine for the rest of his life.
Marco was predeceased by his parents and his younger brother, Joe Jr. He is survived by his nephew Richard Tremarello and family of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and his sister-in-law, Ann Tremarello of Fairbanks.
There will be no final service at this time but Marco's remains will be scattered at Fielding Lake sometime next summer.
