Dominic J. D'Addona "Doc"

November 1, 1934 - November 27, 2020

Dominic J. D’Addona “Doc”, age 86 of Conshohocken, died on Friday, November 27, 2020. He was born in Norristown on November 1, 1934 son of the late Michael and Josephine (Carfagno) D’Addona. He was the beloved husband of the late Clara (Porucznik) D’Addona for over 50 years. Doc was born and raised in Norristown. He and his family were members of Holy Saviour Parish, where he was a lifelong member of the Mount Carmel Club. He was a 1953 graduate of West Catholic High School, where he was an accomplished member of the football and baseball team. After high school, he served his country honorably as a United States Army Korean War Veteran. He continued playing football for the semi-professional “Conshohocken Steelers”, where he later coached. Doc was employed for 30+ years at Alan Wood Steel Co. before operating his own general contracting business in Bala Cynwyd, PA. He was also employed as the Conshohocken Building Code Officer for over 10 years. His love for football, baseball and working with the local youth led him to volunteer coach with the American Legion team in Conshohocken as well as in several local high school programs including; Archbishop Kennedy, Archbishop Carroll, Harriton and Kennedy Kenrick. His passion for sports also made him an avid and loyal fan of any and all teams for which his grandchildren played, as well as the Boston Red Sox and the New York Giants. While married and raising his family in Conshohocken, Doc belonged to St. Mary's parish where he was an active member of the Holy Name Society as well as a dedicated volunteer and coach for the school's CYO. On many occasions he drove the pastor in the Pulaski Day parade, bartended at parish events and helped to bake bread for fundraising. He is survived by: a son, Dominic (Debbie) of East Norriton; a daughter, JoAnn McDonough (Jay) of Conshohocken; three treasured grandchildren who will miss their Pop Pop very much, Andrew (Kasey McDonald) and Kelly D’Addona and Mikey McDonough; a brother, Nick D’Addona; a sister, Theresa Nolan; many nieces, nephews and dear friends. It would be remiss not to mention that Doc also had many four legged friends who he loved spending time with and spoiling. Relatives and friends may pay respects on Wednesday morning, December 2nd, from 9-10:20AM in St. Matthew RC Church, 3rd Ave & Fayette St., Conshohocken. A funeral mass will commence in the church at 10:30AM. Private internment, St. Patrick Cemetery in Norristown.
