Obituary for Vincent Joseph Peluso
VINCENT J. PELUSO
August 10, 1997 - October 9, 2016
Middletown, NY
Vincent "Vinny" Peluso, a lifetime area resident, died unexpectedly on Sunday, October 9, 2016, as a result of a tragic accident. He was 19 years old.
The son of Joseph and Beth Lorgan Peluso, he was born on August 10, 1997 at Horton Hospital in Middletown. Vinny grew up in the Town of Wallkill, where he was active in his community. As a kid, he was a gentle giant, and served as a protector to the smaller children in the neighborhood. He loved the outdoors and being with his family and friends. Vinny graduated from Pine Bush High School in 2015 and currently worked as a mechanic at Strickly Ford in Bullville. He enjoyed doing high performance work on trucks and cars. Throughout his entire life he was always willing to help anyone in need no matter the circumstances.
Everyone that knew him knew how much he loved his family and friends, as well as his pitbull, Bubba. He was most proud of his Ford Power Stroke truck and was known in many truck clubs in the area. Vinny had a heart of gold and will be sorely missed by his family and friends.
In addition to his heartbroken parents, Joe and Beth at home; Vinny leaves behind his beloved girlfriend, Caitlin Napolitano of Pine Bush; and is survived by his sisters, Danielle Peluso of Campbell Hall and Nicole Peluso and her husband, Matt Dupuis of Greenville, along with their children, Riley, Matthew and Emma; his grandparents, Joseph and Corinne Peluso of Holiday, FL and Julia Lorgan of New Windsor.
