Nicholas Daniel Mastromarchi

Rotterdam, NY-Nicholas Daniel Mastromarchi, who touched so many lives with his charismatic personality and winning smile, passed away suddenly on May 30, 2024 from a cardiac anomaly. Nick was born on June 22,1995 to Gina (Robideau) Mastromarchi and Daniel Joseph Mastromarchi. He grew up in Colonie and graduated from Colonie Central High School in 2013. He was a gifted actor and singer, performing in school musicals and community theater, starting in 5th grade and continuing through high school and beyond. While in school, Nick enjoyed playing rec soccer and also tried pretty much every other sport for at least one season. In high school, Nick, also known as “Mastro” was well- known for starting his own soda/candy sales business and participating in ‘Suit Mondays”. Nick was an active member of Boy Scout Troop #22 and earned the rank of Eagle Scout. Nick attended the College of St. Rose to study Music Industry but found that his true passion was in sales. He started working for Vector Marketing at 18, selling Cutco knives and mentoring newer sales representatives. Although many were skeptical about this being a “real job”, Nick worked hard to make this a successful career. He became a district manager who earned many awards and accolades and had just opened the first retail storefront/training center in the company in Rotterdam. He had achieved a goal that he set for himself, and despite many setbacks along the way, showed that hard work and perseverance paid off. His family and friends are very proud of his success. Nick was charming and charismatic (called “Prince Charming” by his family) and was comfortable talking to anyone. His smile could light up a room. He was fiercely loyal to his friends and family and would do anything to help someone in need. Although Nick had his struggles, like any young man, he owned his mistakes and they made him a better person. He was a wonderful mentor and role model for many of his employees because he felt fortunate to have many great role models in his own life. One person that he particularly looked up to was his great-uncle Lou. Nick was blessed to have met his fiancée, Melissa Pelletier, and his relationship with her made him a better man. She is the love of his life and he looked forward to sharing his life with her and having a family. He was the best “cat dad” to Lexi and Rose and also adored his family cat, Loki. He was also blessed to have many long-time close friends with whom he shared special times, particularly at Sacandaga Lake, and his World of Warcraft guild. In addition to his parents and his fiancée, Nick is survived by his brother, Alexander, his sister, Maria, his grandparents, Geraldine and Samuel Robideau and Thomas and Loraine Mastromarchi, his aunts and uncles, Vicki and Michael Mazzie, Timothy Mastromarchi and Scott and Tiffany Mastromarchi, and his cousins, Jeff, Greg, Elizabeth, Emily, Katie and Joshua.
