Nicholas Arcomano

Nicholas Arcomano, 96, died on Saturday, August 16, 2025 in New York City, his home for the past 70 years.

He was born on November 6, 1928, in Brooklyn, New York, son of Rocco and Mollie (Peris) Arcomano. At the age of two, his family moved to Gloversville, New York.

He was a vociferous reader who enjoyed travel (especially to Venice, Italy), art, listening to classical music and following tennis. He had a stellar memory and a genuine curiosity and care about people and the world around him.

Nicholas was predeceased by his parents, beloved wife, Cathryn, his sister, Marion Texier, and his niece, Danielle Texier. He is survived by three nephews in Maryland, Matthew Texier (Tina), Shawn Texier, and Erik Texier (Joyce), great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins and dear friends in the U.S. and abroad who will dearly miss his sharp intellect and wit, genuine kindness, innate generosity and overall goodness.
