Ryan, Joanne P. Seymour, a lifetime resident of Newburgh, NY, passed
peacefully on Thursday, April 2, 2015. She was 67. Daughter of the late
John Ryan Sr. and Ann Ruth (Hayes) Ryan, she was born October 30, 1947
in Newburgh. She was married to the late Jack Seymour, whom she married
on March 15, 1969 in the Church of St. Joseph, New Windsor. She is
survived by her children, Jennifer of Cornwall, supported by boyfriend
Franklin and mother Rachelle, Ryan and his wife Dyani of Ashville, NC,
and Sean and his wife Gina of Walden; her siblings, Ralph Taylor of
Newburgh, Ruthann Golden of Worcester, MA, and Robert Taylor of Tucson,
AZ; her grandchildren, Sydney, Jack and Eli; nieces and nephews, Edna
May and Heidi Seymour, Karen, Susan and George Taylor, Billy, Maryann,
Jill, Pat, Jeff and Tom Taylor, Jeff Golden, who is also her godson,
Brian Golden, Heather Pisano, who is also her goddaughter, and Vicki,
Will and Tom Seymour. She also leaves behind her beloved dogs, Max and
Lazer. In addition to her husband Jack, she was predeceased by her
brother-in-law, Gary Seymour, nephew and godson John G. Seymour, and
brother, Bill Taylor. Today we are saddened by the loss of Mrs. Joanne
Patricia Seymour. She was a very strong determined woman who was able to
stand on her own and fend for herself. Her independence was her pride
and she fought hard to preserve it. In February of 2014 she was given
her biggest challenge of her life. She was informed that she had been
stricken with cancer. It had metastasized and spread to various parts of
her body. Over the year she underwent surgery, and withstood many chemo
and radiation treatments. Still she fought without complaint and
displayed more strength than we've ever seen. Unfortunately she met her
match and was beaten by the disease and was unable to leave her bed for
the remaining months of her year long struggle. She passed peacefully in
the Kaplan Family Hospice Residence in Newburgh. Joanne was a mother,
grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. We mourn her departure, and
celebrate her arrival. She is at peace with her reestablished family. We
love her and miss her and are very grateful for the time we were able to
share with her. On behalf of our family we would like to thank the
Hospice program for helping us through this trying period. We felt very
comfortable in your care. She was given back a quality of life when one
no longer existed. We were able to have a healthy grieving period
without the burden of caretaking. This program truly made all the
difference with our experience. "No matter how cold the winter there is
a spring time ahead" ~Eddie Vedder Love and Thanks, The Seymour Family.

Scott, Ralph R. (Mickey) On Sunday - Oct 30th, 2011 at about noon,
Mickey Scott called his mom, Irmy, in Newburgh to tell her he was going
outside to rake leaves. It was the last time Mickey Scott would talk to
anyone in his tight-knit family. Scott, believed to be the first
mid-Hudson high school baseball player ever drafted, died outside his home
on Sunday in Binghamton. He was 64. The Yankees took Scott, a left-handed
pitcher, out of Newburgh Free Academy in the 17th round of the 1965 draft.
Scott's sister, June Valentino, who lives in Newburgh, said she believes
her brother died of a heart attack or stroke. She said he went to the gym
regularly. "It's a shock. I guess two women found him hunched over in a
chair in the afternoon and called 911," Valentino said. "How do you deal
with it? Mickey was a super, super guy. Everyone liked him. He was
fun-loving. Mickey was a hell raiser, but everyone had good things to say
about him." Valentino said services for Scott will be held later this week
in Binghamton. Scott pitched out of the bullpen for three major-league
teams – Baltimore, Montreal and the California Angels – from 1972-77. He
appeared in 133 career games, retiring with an 8-7 record and a 3.72 ERA.
Scott went on to work for the Yankees in different capacities, including a
batting practice pitcher, Valentino said. In Binghamton, Scott formerly
owned his own bar, Mickey's Mound. It was frequented by former Yankees
manager Billy Martin. "I remember the first time Mickey pitched at Yankee
Stadium," Valentino said. "I had to stay home and baby sit our brother,
but it was still a thrill to see him. Growing up, we thought it was a
pain, going to all of Mickey's games. But we are all so proud of him."
