Richard Paul Stamegna Sr.

Richard Paul Stamegna, Senior, 88, of Mount Pleasant, S.C. returned to God on Sunday, June 25, 2017. A native of Mamaroneck, New York, he served his country in the Marine Corps and as a Detective with the Mamaroneck Police Department. He was a master craftsman and builder, often smelling of dry wall and saw dust, when he wasn’t on the golf course. His characteristic gruff manner hid his great humor; his wink and a smile would bring the sunshine out. He will be deeply mourned. He is survived by his loving wife of 68 years, Phyllis Marie Stamegna (nee Iacovelli), his children Richard P. Stamegna, Jr. (Sandra), David J. Stamegna (JoAneen) and Sharon A. Stangil (the late Dr. Paul Stangil), Beth Stamegna, Grandchildren Amber Stamegna Deutsch (Marshall), Christopher D. Stamegna, Skyler B. Stamegna (Chrissy), Lauren A. Stangil, Anthony J. Stamegna and Vanessa M. Stangil, Great-Grandchilden Elena Stamegna Deutsch, Marlowe Stamegna Deutsch and Hunter Riley Stamegna, cousins, nieces, nephews and friends. Mr. Stamegna was predeceased by his parents and seventeen siblings, of whom he was the youngest, and his beloved son-in-law Paul Stangil, D.C.
