Mr. Pandolf was born in Utica, NY. He married the love of his life, Philomena Gagliardi on May 7, 1955 in Utica, and they would have celebrated their 65th Wedding Anniversary this week. He worked as a tool and die maker at American Emblem in New Hartford, NY, and then General Electric in Utica, NY. The family moved to Rochester, NY in 1964.

Mr. Pandolf joined Eastman Kodak Company in 1966 as a tool and die maker, and instrument maker, manufacturing camera components and prototypes. He was promoted to Department Supervisor and retired in the late 1980s.

Mr. Pandolf loved to golf and travel to Florida and Virginia to visit with his sisters and their families. He loved to play cards with family and friends, especially Pinochle and Poker. He worked tirelessly for decades on maintaining their beautiful family home, doing everything from carpentry, roofing, painting, and yardwork. An avid New York Yankee fan, he passed the love of baseball on to his four sons and two grandsons, who will carry on the tradition.

His culinary specialty was preparing an excellent antipasto salad, which was a staple at Sunday dinners with the family. He was always well-dressed in classic attire no matter what day it was.

Mr. Pandolf will be remembered for being a loving and dedicated husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend to many.
