Nancy Fahmi

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Nancy Fahmi, age 54, of Upper Saddle River, New Jersey. Nancy passed away peacefully on Monday, February 12, 2024, surrounded by her loved ones.

Nancy was born in Yonkers, New York on February 2, 1970 at Cross County Hospital to Pasqualina and Carlo Santamaria. Nancy grew up in the Bronx with her older brother John and then moved to Nanuet in Rockland County NY when she was 6 years old where her younger sister Carla came along.

Nancy graduated from Nanuet High School and attended Pace University and Saint Thomas Aquinas College where she excelled in accounting.

Nancy met her beloved husband Russell in high school and they were married in 1996. They settled in Airmont NY and together they operated Precision Hardwood Floors while raising two wonderful sons, Nicholas and Justin. She loved to travel and spend time in some of her favorite places like Italy and Long Beach Island. Nancy was fiercely loyal to her friends and family, loved music especially freestyle and was always the first one on the dance floor. She always had time to support multiple charities that were close to her heart and somehow won every charity raffle she was in. Ultimately, nothing made Nancy happier in life then spending time with her boys, Nicholas and Justin.

Nancy is survived by her husband Russell, sons Nicholas and Justin, parents Pasqualina and Carlo Santamaria, brother John and wife Laura Santamaria, and sister Carla and husband John Thompson. She leaves behind a large extended family of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews all of whom will miss her and love her forever.

Nancy will be remembered as a loving mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin and friend.
