Robert Louis Rinaldi
SUNDAY OCTOBER 27, 1985 – SUNDAY OCTOBER 27, 2013
Robert L. Rinaldi, born in Ossining to Louis and Lorie (Santucci) Rinaldi died on his 28th birthday surrounded by his heartbroken family.
Rob graduated with honors from St. Augustine’s School, Ossining High School and Stonehill College, MA where he met Courtney (Rene) Rinaldi, the love of his life. They were married September 27, 2011.
Robert was an Eagle Scout (Troop 49) and active member of Ossining Fire Dept., Monitor Hose Co. 4. He was an avid sports fan especially of the Yankees and Jets and knew sports better than professional commentators. He was also a history and law buff. He enjoyed golf, bowling, softball and excelled at soccer.
Rob lived life to the fullest to the very end and deeply touched all of our lives.
In addition to his wife, Courtney, and parents, Louis and Lorie, he is survived by loving brothers Michael & Louis, sister Angela Rinaldi-Faiella, nieces Ariana and Giovanna, grandmothers Irene Rinaldi and Rosemary Santucci, many aunts, uncles, cousins, dear friends and his puppy Lucky.
We will remember him as a sweet, loving, gentle, beautiful soul having great optimism and humor.
The deep love he had for life and his family gave him strength and courage during his six year struggle with synovial sarcoma. He was truly loved beyond measure and will be missed beyond words.
He will be reposing Tuesday 2-4 & 7-9pm at Leach & Thomas, Inc. 32 State Street Ossining. Mass of Christian Burial Wednesday 10am at St. Augustine’s Church, burial St. Augustine’s Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations to a trust, "Robert Rinaldi Memorial Fund" would be appreciated.
