Fraternity Mourns Loss of its 28th National President, Trent J. Ciarrocchi

9/20/2015

 
PictureTrent J. Ciarrocchi, Psi '35, 28th National President September 30, 1917-December 25, 2014
It has been reported to us, that our Brother, Trent J. Ciarrocchi, Sr., Alpha Phi Delta's 28th National President (1966-68) passed from this life on Thursday December 25, 2014, at the Weirton Geriatric Center.

Trent J. Ciarrocchi was born September 30, 1917, in the small mining community of Dearth, Pa. At the age of one, his family moved to Weirton, West Virginia where he has lived all his life.

In the fall of 1935, he entered Duquesne University from which he graduated with a B.S. in Business Administration. While attending Duquesne, he was initiated into Psi Chapter. In 1942, Mr. Ciarrocchi served as a lieutenant junior grade in the US Naval Reserves from 1942-1946, and saw service in the European Theater of Operations during World War II.  Returning to Weirton, after his military service, he joined the Weir-Cove Moving and Storage Company, a motor transportation firm hauling steel and general freight in six states where he finished his career as an executive.

Very active in civic, church and fraternal organizations, he has held many positions with the Knights of Columbus, Elks Club, the Community Chest, Junior Achievement Inc. In 1971, he was elected to the office of Grand Knight of the Monsignor D.P. Murphy Council of the Knights of Columbus of Weirton.

Among the many fraternal activities, he was a member of the Steubenville Alumni Club and helped found the Weirton Alumni Club. He served as National Vice President 1964-1966 and as National President 1966-1968. Trent chaired the Scholarship Division of the Foundation for over ten years and oversaw much of its growth.

Trent married the former Helen Czarepack (d. November 24, 2014) in November, 1940. They raised three children: Gloria Jean, David (d.1994), and Trent Jr. (d.1968), the latter, a victim of an unfortunate fatal car accident as an undergraduate brother of Beta Theta in 1968.

Alpha Phi Delta Mourns the Loss of Brother and Long Time Beta Lambda Advisor Albert Zanzuccki (1916-2015)

9/19/2015

 
Central Office regrets to report the death of Dr. Albert Zanzuccki of Beta Lambda Chapter, at the age of 99, on September 18, 2015. Dr. Zanzuccki was a long time faculty advisor of the Chapter, and was involved since its founding in 1949. In 1958, he was given membership in Alpha Phi Delta. Born on July 22, 1916, Dr. Zanzuccki is survived by his wife, Velsie Zanzuccki (nee Carnivale). Together they had four children: Linda, Francesco Regina and Louise. In 1939, he graduated from the Indiana State Teachers' College, where he served as Student Body President. Following college, Dr. Zanzuccki enlisted in the United States Army in 1942, and served throughout World War II. Following the war, he took employment as an instructor at St. Francis University (at that time, St. Francis College) in Loretto, Pennsylvania. He was professor of accounting and chair of the school of business at St. Francis from 1946-1984, and an Advancement Associate from 1984 through 2014. Dr. Zanzuccki was highly respected and well-loved by generations of students, especially members of Alpha Phi Delta. He was last on campus with his family to participate in a groundbreaking for a new building, Schwab Hall; the first floor of that Hall will be named in memory of him upon completion of construction.
