Steve Perciballi Medical & Family
Donation protected
52-year-old father of four, soccer champ, and former member of the New York Stock Exchange Stephen Perciballi passed away on November 1, 2018.
On Father’s Day in 2018, Steve looked forward to celebrating with a special at-home family dinner, but instead a tragic chain of events was set into motion. Steve’s hernias (a complication from a surgery in 2003) ruptured and resulted with six perforations in his intestines. This health event led him on a surgical path to endure 9 surgeries, 24 procedures and 8 rounds of antibiotics, all while also receiving dialysis for kidney failure. He defied the odds in fighting and surviving three sepsis infections. After four months of being in the ICU at NY Presbyterian Hospital, the fourth sepsis infection proved to be too much. Steve passed away peacefully while surrounded by his family in the hospital.
Stephen leaves behind the love of his life, Denise Orlando Perciballi, and their four children: Noelle (age 20), Stephen Jr. (age 18), Leighann (age 16), and Joseph (age 14). I am Jennifer Perciballi, Steve’s sister, and proud Aunt to his incredible children. With the family’s permission, I have launched this page to help achieve what my brother would have continued if he had more time with us on earth.
Many kind and gracious family members, friends, former colleagues and teammates from when Steve played Division 1 soccer at Iona, and was goalie for Northport H.S. as they became N.Y. State champs have expressed a desire to help in some way. You should feel no obligation to contribute, and do so only if it helps you feel good in honoring Steve.
Steve so desperately wants his family to remain in their home that is filled with loving memories, which sadly, they risk losing without his income. (A little backstory: With a compromised health history from earlier in his life, Steve was denied the typical safety net of Life Insurance; and with the evolution of the NYSE he, like others, had to shutter his business as a two-dollar broker in 2008, and shortly after he became disabled with Charcot.)
The Stephen Perciballi Medical & Family Fund will help provide a great measure of comfort and support to Denise, Noelle, Steve Jr., Leighann and Joey as they move forward in life. Nothing would have made Steve feel more loved than having his family and friends realize his dream.
All the funds raised through this campaign will be used to help pay medical bills, as well as contributing to mortgage payments.
The Perciballi family would like to thank everyone for their love and support during this difficult time.
