Personal
DiMarco has known his wife Amy since the seventh grade, when both attended Rock Lake Middle School in Longwood, Florida. Later, both were students at Lake Brantley High School, and attended their high school prom together. They have three children—two daughters and a son.
He hosts his own annual charity golf tournament at his local course, the Country Club of Heathrow in Heathrow, Florida. The "Norma DiMarco Tee Up For Life Golf Tournament," named in honor of his mother who died from cancer in 2006, raises funds for R.O.C.K (Reaching Out to Cancer Kids), and features celebrities and amateurs. As part of his personal participation in the event, DiMarco plays the 12th hole with every foursome in the tournament.

Famous quotes containing the word personal:
“... goodness is of a modest nature, easily discouraged, and when much elbowed in early life by unabashed vices, is apt to retire into extreme privacy, so that it is more easily believed in by those who construct a selfish old gentleman theoretically, than by those who form the narrower judgments based on his personal acquaintance.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“The personal right to acquire property, which is a natural right, gives to property, when acquired, a right to protection, as a social right.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
“Life is not an easy matter.... You cannot live through it without falling into frustration and cynicism unless you have before you a great idea which raises you above personal misery, above weakness, above all kinds of perfidy and baseness.”
—Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)
