C. Marc Zicari 

Webster: Passed away on November 18, 2018, surrounded by his beloved and devoted wife of 54 years, Judy (Boyle) Zicari, his children, Emily (Ken McClenathan), Charlie (Maura Curtin), Meg Palmer (David), Marc (Kathleen), Michael (Suzanne), Dan (Marcy), Peter (Jeanine), Kathleen Moczarski (Curt), John (Krista) and Mary; his grandchildren: Jane; Shannon, Donny, Reese; Samantha, Brendan; Rachel, Laney; Haley, Charley, Bailey, Kiley; Alice, Patrick, Thomas, Elizabeth, Lawrence; Anthony, Jonathan; Anna, Alex; Isabella, Isaac, Elliot, and longtime family friend, Karen Donahue.  He is also survived by his three great-grandchildren, numerous loving nieces, nephews, cousins, and many special friends.

Born August 18, 1938 to Charles and Margaret Zicari.  The oldest sibling of Maria Bernadette Weaver (deceased) (Jack), Jane Cala (Gerry), Margaret Czerwiec (Tom, deceased), Patricia Cocquyt (Ron), Rosemary Guchone (Bill), Kitty Stappenbeck (Don), and John Zicari (Kerry).  He graduated from St. Bernard’s Seminary and embarked upon his teaching career at Bishop Kearney High School, followed by 29 years at the Webster High Schools.  He inspired students as English Department Chair and Speech & Debate Coach and developed countless life-long friendships with cherished colleagues. He had an affinity for superheroes and sweets.  Superman was his idol; ice cream was his kryptonite.

He would want us to remember the words of the Little Prince, “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly.”
