Steven P. Figliola

Steven P. Figliola passed away on January 28, 2026, leaving behind a large, loving, and devoted extended family. Steve was born on August 23,1955 the third of eight children, all deeply loved and cared for by their parents, Ann (Cardile) and Mike Figliola, Sr.

Steve graduated from DelCastle High School, class of 1974. He trained as an electrician, following in the footsteps of his father. He worked in the field for over 50 years, acquiring knowledge and skills by becoming a diagnostic specialist.

Steve managed the Greenhill Car Wash over the course of several years. He understood and managed all the complex machinery along with maintaining the property, which served the local community.

However, Steve’s greatest passion and joy was working for the Italian Festival as the contracted electrician in charge. He and his crew spent an entire week planning, installing, and testing the wiring and electrical fixtures while collaborating with the vendors. He remained onsite throughout the festival, offering his time and expertise to immediately address any problems. Steve especially loved hanging out with his family and encouraging the out-of-town folks to schedule their trips to Wilmington during the week of the festival. Our family shares fond memories of celebrating our heritage together.

Steve was predeceased by his parents, and leaves behind seven siblings. Michael Jr, Louise, Dan (Kitty), Michele (Jim), Joe (Maureen), Jim (Vicki), and his “baby sister” Joanne. Steve was the proud uncle to twelve nieces and nephews and sixteen great nieces and nephews, all of whom adored him. He attended many of their sporting events and other activities.

Steve loved to talk about sports, especially football and baseball, and would share his years of knowledge with anyone who would listen.

Steve’s funeral will be private, but we encourage all who knew him to share your memories.

We would like to thank Delaware Hospice for their compassion, care, and support.

The family would also like to extend a special thank you to Steve’s cousins Sandi and Martin Duszak for their unwavering love and support.

In lieu of flowers, Steve requested that donations be made to
