Jack DiBari

Giacomo Lorenzo “Jack” DiBari, 84, of Pound Ridge, died peacefully on Friday, January 27, 2023 while surrounded by his family. Jack was the loving husband of the late Mary Ann (Saladino) DiBari.

Jack was born in Brooklyn, NY on May 1, 1938; a son of the late Leonardo and Anna (DiGena) DiBari. Pop, as he was affectionately known, is the youngest of 11. He worked for as long as he could remember from sorting buttons for his mother, a seamstress, at the tender age of 4; to his first paid job as a shoeshine boy at the age of 9 for 10 cents a shine. He changed tires, dug graves and finally, at the age of 17, bought his first truck with his brother and partner Mike. And so, DiBari’s Red Eagle Express & Stronghold was created. He worked hard to establish the business & support his growing family. Eventually, he moved his family upstate.

A longtime resident of Pound Ridge, Jack enjoyed fishing, baseball and later developed a love for golf.

Jack is survived by his 6 children: Katrina Starr and her husband, Gary; Jacqueline Scott and her husband, Brian; Leonard DiBari and his wife, Darci Malverty; Jennifer Fratta and her husband, Steven; Lisa Coughlin and her husband, Brian; and Lara Tersigni and her husband, Angel. Jack is also survived by 26 grandchildren, 4 great grandchildren and 1 on the way. Other surviving family members include, brother in-law John Saladino, sister in-law Kathryn Martino and countless nieces and nephews.

In addition to his parents, Leonardo and Anna, and his wife, Mary Ann, Jack was predeceased by brothers Pietro (Pete), Francesco (Frank), Angelo (Andy), Nicolas (Nick), Luigi (Lou), Giuseppe (Joe), Michael (Mike), sisters Grace Lodato, Jenny, and her namesake Jenny Golino.

Jack was also predeceased by a grandson, Nicholas Giacomo Tersigni, who’s memorial card he carried everywhere in his back pocket.  Often, on laundry days, he would call to daughter, “Jacqueline! Don’t forget to take Nicholas out of my pocket!”
