David S. Marin, Sr., 75, Hancock, NY, left us too soon on Thursday, Feb. 6, 2025. David was born on March 22, 1949. He married Socorro Gonzalez and she predeceased him on July 23, 2017 after 51 years of marriage.

David was larger than life. Always ready with a joke and a smile. David was a very charismatic soul and had a big heart so full of love. David was a retired NYS Dept. of Transportation Supervisor. David was a local business owner and a source of comic relief within the community. David's (Papa's) greatest joy in life were his children and grandchildren. Nothing made him happier than family events, dinners, pop-in visits and anytime involving his family.

Surviving David are his 3 children, Ann Marie and husband Stephen Kovaleski, David S. Marin, Jr., and Linda and Nathan Mroz, and 7 grandchildren, Olivia (Marin) and Husband Kevin Sheeran, Hannah Marin, Abigail Mroz, Victoria and Stephen Kovaleski, Ella Mroz and Sophia Kovaleski. He is also survived by 1 sister, America Restaino, 2 brothers, Salvatore and Joseph Marin and several nieces and nephews. Davis was predeceased by a sister, Estelle.
