Obituary: Tony Roger DeMotto, age 92 years, a resident of Coalton, WV, peacefully departed this life before the break of dawn on , 12, 2017 at Colonial Place in Elkins. He had been in declining health in recent months.
He was the child of Italian immigrants who came to America for the opportunity of a better life, as were many of his generation who grew up in Coalton. The youngest of 11 siblings, Tony was born on , 18, 1924 at Coalton, WV, a son of the late Andrea Damato and Bambino Mastrogiuseppe Damato. On May 22, 1948 at Coalton, WV, he was married to the late Jessie Lucille Roberson DeMotto.

Also surviving is a special niece raised in Mr. DeMottos home, Doris George, and husband Roger and their son Chris, all of Elkins, and several other nieces and nephews.
Preceding him in death were seven brothers: Joe DeMotto, James DeMotto, Gus ( ) DeMotto, Antonio DeMotto, Andy DeMotto, Fred DeMotto and Carlo DeMotto and three sisters: Mini Vince, Helen Rossi and Amelia Reilly.
He attended the schools of Coalton. Enlisting in the Army after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, he trained at Camp Rucker, AL. He was a foot soldier in the 35th Infantry Division of 3rd Army under the supreme command of General George S. Patton. The division landed on Omaha Beach during the D-Day Invasion of France. Immediately entering combat, Mr. DeMotto fought north of St. Lo France, in hedgerow country. The 35th moved across France via Orleans and Sens and captured Nancy, France. Continuing on to Germany and while being relieved for R & R, they were rushed back into battle at Arlon, Belgium to repulse German attacks in what became known as the Battle of the Bulge. The division fought their way across the Roer, then reaching the Rhine. continued to the Ruhr and on to Elbe Rivers and then Hanover before the war ended. Mr. DeMotto was honored to have served and always remembered his fellow soldiers, especially those who never made it back. The war had a profound impact on what he became and the manner in which he lived his life. While proud of his service, he would be the first to say, War is hell and should be a last resort. He received the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star Medal for his meritorious achievement in the European-African-Middle Eastern Theater of Operations for the campaigns of Normandy, Northern France and Rhineland.
an Honorable Discharge, Mr. DeMotto became a shovel operator for the DeMotto Pearless Coal . In 1957, he became a Harley Davidson Motorcycle dealer located in Harding and then Norton, WV. Eventually, he and his wife Jessie became the owners and operators of DeMotto Honda and Harley Davidson located in Crystal Springs near Elkins. With a strong work ethic and good timing, they built their business into a success, winning many dealer awards along the way. In 1972, they sold more Honda Trail 90s than any dealer in the world, earning Mr. DeMotto an invitation to Tokyo, Japan to meet Mr. Soichiro Honda, the founder of Honda Motor .
He was a loyal member of Saint Patricks Catholic Church at Coalton, attending regularly until declining health moved him to Colonial Place in Elkins to be with his wife Jessie before her passing in of 2013 and then to Brookdale Maplewood assisted living in Bridgeport, WV. His final stop was back at Colonial Place to be nearer his home as the sun began to set on a life well lived.
He will be remembered by his family as a man who preferred work to play, but knew how to play. He was a straight shooter who rarely held back, but who also had a kind heart for those in need, and especially children. In addition, he took great pride in his Italian heritage but was an American first. He loved his parents, children, and grandchildren and understood how fortunate he was to have been married to his bride of 65 years whom he dearly missed. He mostly enjoyed the simple things: a nice truck, a beer, mowing grass, and restoring the park in Coalton. He enjoyed his back porch, fried potatoes and peppers, ramps, and his garden. He also enjoyed a good battle.
The family is grateful to both the Colonial Place in Elkins and Brookdale Maplewood in Bridgeport. Both assisted living facilities provided great comfort, care, and supervision around the clock.
The family will receive friends at the Lohr & Barb of Elkins on from 5 to 7 PM. On evening at 7 PM at the funeral home, a wake service will be recited.
