Francisco Assis De Souza, 63, of Port Chester NY died on December 5th. "Chico" passed away after a battle with cancer. He is survived by his five children: Juliana Coutinho, Adriano Coutinho, Gabrielle Parenti, Matthew De Souza, Lucas De Souza and his grandson William Parenti.
Chico enjoyed live to it's fullest. He believed in no excuses and never took no for an answer. He was selfless and giving to all those he loved. He took great pride in his work and was a phenomenal carpenter at West Fair Oak for over 30 years. No detail was ever to small and he never compromised always striding for perfection.
On his seldom days off you would find him on a boat with a beer in one hand and a fishing rod in another. He loved to host, bbq, watch soccer, spoil his grandson and just make those around him happy. His smile was contagious. He was the best dad, papa, uncle, cousin, friend or employee you could ask for.
We will forever love & miss him. Rest in peace.
