Kirwan, Thomas a lifelong City of Newburgh resident and New York State
Assemblyman Thomas Kirwan died Monday, November 28, 2011 in the afternoon.
Kirwan, 78, who had been battling an illness for some time, was admitted
to the Newburgh campus of St. Luke's Cornwall Hospital and passed away
there around 5 p.m., according to Steve Neuhaus, regional director for the
state Assembly Republicans as well as supervisor of the Town of Chester.
Friends and family of Kirwan gathered at his home in Newburgh late Monday
afternoon. “He was incredibly fair and thoughtful – I could always count
on my father for anything,” said Victoria Fabiano, Kirwan's daughter.
Kirwan, R-C-Newburgh, was a former City of Newburgh firefighter and served
28 years in the New York State Police. He retired as a lieutenant in the
Bureau of Criminal Investigations. Kirwan spent four years in Manhattan
with the New York Drug Enforcement Task Force. Former Town of New Windsor
Supervisor George Meyers said he knew Kirwan for 40 years, worked with him
as a state trooper and considered him his best friend. Meyers said Kirwan
never stopped being a cop at heart. “He was the smartest and nicest man
you met in your whole life,” said Meyers. Kirwan served as a Republican
state assemblyman in the 100th District representing the cities of Beacon,
Newburgh and Poughkeepsie and the towns of Marlboro, Newburgh, Lloyd and
Shawangunk. He was elected in 1995 and served until 2008 when he was
defeated by Democrat Frank Skartados. In 2010, he narrowly recaptured the
seat. Orange County Democratic Committee Chairman Jonathan Jacobson said
Kirwan “never hesitated to say what he believed in.” A moment of silence
was held for Kirwan during a City of Newburgh council meeting Monday
night. “We're talking about someone who's an institution in Newburgh. The
guy was amazing,” said Newburgh Mayor Nicholas Valentine. Kirwan's state
Senate counterpart, William Larkin, R-C-Cornwall-on-Hudson, said Kirwan
never embellished a story. “Tommy Kirwin never told you what you wanted to
hear; he told you what you should hear,” said Larkin. Back in 1994, Kirwan
defeated incumbent Larry Bennett for the Assembly seat. Bennett said
Kirwan was a gentleman with a good sense of humor. “He was above personal
attacks and stuck strictly to the issues. The press called it ‘The
Campaign of Gentlemen.'”

children. An accomplished musician, historian, and conservationist, Vic
and longtime friend Pete Seeger collaborated to realize their vision of
inspiring and mobilizing people to save the Hudson River from pollution
and neglect. Their combined vision brought about the creation of the
sailing ship Clearwater, a replica Hudson River Sloop that continues to be
used as an environmental educational tool. Their activities in support of
Clearwater were the beginning of Riverfests and are acknowledged by
historians and conservationists as being the birth of the environmentalist
movement in the United States, as well as inspiring similar projects
around the world. Vic's interest in bookmaking and printing led to his
career as a book designer and hobby of wood engraving and printing. He
owned and operated Mt. Taurus Press, a working restoration of a 19th
century print shop in Nelsonville, New York, for over ten years. There he
created a series of Hudson River prints that became classic
representations of his work as an artist and a print maker. Vic returned
to his musician environmentalist roots with his active participation in
the formation of the Little Stony Point Citizens' Association. This
grass-roots organization of local people is dedicated to the preservation
and care of Little Stony Point, one of the very few sandy beaches along
the Hudson River. As president of the Association, one of his proudest
achievements was pursuing and obtaining the funding necessary for the
replacement of the formerly condemned bridge, which was the only access to
the site. The beach is now a very popular recreation area on the Hudson
River. When Vic was diagnosed with cancer in 1994, he decided to devote
his time to what made him happiest. Vic established a small business as a
luthier, repairing and building acoustic stringed instruments. His
business as a luthier led many musicians to his door, and Vic became an
enthusiastic performer with friends, his group, Acoustic Workshop, and
became a fairly regular performer at the legendary Guinan's in Garrison.
As Vic's declining health curtailed many of his activities, a dedicated
group of friends would often gather at Vic's house to play music with, and
sometimes for, him. Vic is survived by his wife, Linda Schuler Schwarz;
his son Carl Victor Schwarz of Lake Carmel, NY and grandchildren Tyler and
Elliot Schwarz; his daughter Maria Joy Schwarz Rodriguez and son-in-law
Oscar Rodriguez of Blue Point, NY and grandchildren Carl, Lauren, Melanie,
and Arlo Rodriguez; his daughter Julann Mae Schwarz Cobb and sonin law
John Cobb of Beacon, NY and grandchildren Ethan and Miles Cobb. Vic's life
will be honored in a gathering of his many of friends and loved ones,
sharing music and fond memories in his honor. Friends are invited to
participate in this celebration of Vic Schwarz's life on Sunday, October
19 at 2pm at the Garrison Fish and Game Club. In honor of Vic's legacies,
charitable donations may be made in his name to Little Stony Point
Citizens' Association or to Clearwater, Inc. For information about the

Tienken, Carol
Tompkins, Frances Pelella passed away on June 15, 2012, in
Kennewick, Washington, after a courageous battle with cancer. Fran was
born on July 11, 1932, in Poughkeepsie and grew up in Newburgh, along
the Hudson River in the lower Hudson Valley of New York State, where she
learned the meaning of a hard day's work. She worked on the family farm
and at a young age understood the business of chickens and cows, fruit
growing and vegetable gardening while always looking forward to that
trip to the river to catch fish. It was later in life when she realized
how hard that work was and how it paid off. Fran's work ethic and sense
of loyalty was instilled in her three children, whom she raised as a
single parent during their adolescent years, and worked a full time job.
She encouraged her kids to work hard, enjoy sports and have funbut not
until the house and yard chores were done. Fran supported her children's
dreams and never held them back from doing what they wanted to do. She
also enjoyed family and extended family barbeques, trips to the pool,
and a friendly game of cards. If you have ever played cards with Fran,
especially pinochle, you know how passionate she could become about it.
Her kitchen table was open to family and friends who wanted to play and
enjoy a good cup of coffee. There was always a pot of sauce with pasta,
salad and Italian bread. And her children's friends were always around
where they were part of the family. In 1980, Fran followed her children
to the Tri Cities, where she worked for Burns and Roe and then later
Energy Northwest as a document control clerk until she retired in 1997.
During these years she enjoyed cooking from her garden, family get
togethers and following her grandchildren's school and sports
activities. For several years Fran was a season ticket holder at the
Tri-City Americans hockey games and loved watching those players who
made it to the NHL. She was an avid NHL hockey fan for over 40 years and
enjoyed the 2012 Stanley Cup right to the end. Fran loved living in the
TriCities, following grandkids and celebrating every holiday with
family. Shopping the fresh markets and annual trips to the Oregon coast
with her family were especially fun and enjoyable. Fran enjoyed living
at her retirement complex where she organized a birthday club and kept
at it for 7 years making sure every member had a card on their birthday
and a special dessert during their monthly birthday celebration. Fran is
survived by her three children, Debbie Pelella-Pettit (Ron) of Richland,
Marianne Banta (Tom) of Kennewick and Mark Pelella (Gina) of Norwalk,
Connecticut; grandchildren, Jason Webb (Abbie) of Bothell, Wa, Kristine
Webb of Richland, Jasen Banta (Jennifer) of Kennewick, Amber Stoner of
Mountlake Terrace, Wa, Nick Banta of Kennewick, Nicole Caruso (Stephen)
of Washington D.C., Alexandra Pelella and Mark Pelella II of Norwalk,
Connecticut; and five great-grandchildren; sisters, Shirley Lacey (Mel)
of Kennewick, Susan Fishel of Mesa, Arizona and Terry Thom (Keith) of
Bradenton, Florida, and numerous nieces and nephews. Fran was preceded
in death by her mother, Elizabeth Tatman, and step father, Carl Tatman.
Fran's strength helped during her valiant fight with cancer. Even during
those tough days, Fran stayed strong and made friends with all those who
treated and cared for her. She is and will be missed. In lieu of
flowers, memorials can be sent to Lower Valley Hospice and Palliative
Care 3920 Outlook Road, Sunnyside, We 98944, in memory of Frances
Pelella. Please join her family at 2:00pm for her Celebration of Life on

Zutty, Nathan L. "Cap" chemical industry inventor and senior
executive, died Jan. 1, 2008 at his longtime home in New Canaan, Conn.
He also lived in Oak Bluffs. After taking his doctorate in chemistry at
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute at the age of 24, he joined Union
Carbide (now merged with Dow Chemical) in their research and development
division, quickly rising to become vice president of research and
development for Carbide. Mr. Zutty was a prolific inventor, holding 20
U.S. patents and numerous foreign ones in the polymer and plastics
field. During the Viet Nam War, he moved rapidly to help the Pentagon
solve a serious problem: dust kicked up by helicopters and other
vehicles was damaging mechanical equipment at Cam Ranh Bay. He and
colleague A. T. Anderson came up with six products for dust control.
Four of them headed the list of all candidates submitted. One was given
the go-ahead, and shipments to Viet Nam began within a matter of hours.
Mr. Zutty subsequently held several senior executive positions,
including chairman of Union Carbide Europe and president of Solvents and
Coatings Materials. Born in Brooklyn, N.Y. on Nov. 24, 1933, he was the
son of the late Lester Zutty and Blanche Kammerling Zutty. He was
predeceased by his wife of 31 years, Jone Latterner Zutty. Survivors

Zutty of Bedford Hills, N.Y.; three grandsons, ( Name removed at 1st
