David "Dave" Angelone, beloved husband and father, passed away suddenly on April 27, 2021, at the University of Pennsylvania Hospital. He succumbed to complications related to recently discovered cancer. Dave was in positive spirits and showed courage and kindness as he stayed "Newburgh strong" during his fight. He was born August 9, 1950, at home in Newburgh, NY. He was the lifelong partner of Susan Angelone; they were married July 11, 1971, at Immaculate Conception in Bronx, NY. He is also survived by his children, DJ Angelone (Bonnie), Mike Angelone (Katie); grandchildren, Drew and Gabe Angelone, Abby, and Nora Angelone; siblings Teri Morris, Danny Angelone (Geri), Alice Richner (Tom), Donna Lego (Rick), Pat Angelone (Paula), Ron Angelone, Stephen Angelone (Andrea), Phillip Angelone, his dear brothers-in-law Andrew and Michael Naclerio, many nieces, nephews, and cousins. He is predeceased by his parents Frank and Pauline (Sebesta) Angelone, his in-laws Gabe and Celia (DePalma) Naclerio, and his brother-in-law James Morris. He lived a full life in so many wonderful places: Newburgh, NY; Bronx, NY; Seattle, WA; Vineland, NJ; Valley Cottage, NY; Roseville, CA; and Myrtle Beach, SC. He traveled the United States 7 times by vehicle and enjoyed many overseas vacations. He devoted 40 years of his life to the automotive industry, during which time he enjoyed rebuilding old muscle cars including his prized 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302, and 1971 Mach 1. He also rebuilt a ‘66 Mustang with the 289 Windsor V8. He could deconstruct any motor and put it back together again better than the original. Dave was a loving, hardworking, and industrious person who loved spending time tinkering in his garage, working in his yard, and spending time with his family. When the kids were younger, he could be found coaching their teams. In later years, he played the role of supportive spectator and always wanted to hear the play-by-play when he could not attend. He enjoyed swimming in his pool, boating on Folsom Lake, skiing in Tahoe, and sighting in his rifle at the Lincoln Gun Range. He loved to barbecue, powerwash, stain fences, pour concrete, and run electricity anywhere he could. Dave parented a long list of pets over the years, and animals seemed to feel extremely safe around him. He loved to laugh. Something about his smile made people (and animals) feel comforted and protected. He was always willing and wanting to dance with Susan. Dave was probably most satisfied when others were having a good time in his beautifully landscaped backyard where he built enough seating areas to host a summit meeting. In 2018, he and Susan moved to Myrtle Beach, SC, and began their retirement in style. Without hesitation, he bought himself a brand new Jeep Wrangler and grew out a ponytail. And most importantly, he finally hired a landscaper, so he could enjoy that Jeep and nights out with friends at Murrells Inlet and Surfside Beach. He found a great routine, making new friendships, rekindling old ones, and living his retirement years to the fullest. Anyone who has ever worked with him knows he would be the first person to arrive and the last person to leave. Before YouTube, there were only a handful of people in one’s circle who knew how to do certain things like fix leaky faucets or install a ceiling fan, sharpen the blades on a lawnmower. Dave was one of those people. He always knew which tool to use both in a figurative and literal sense. He was stoic but not detached. He was impassive but never indifferent; where he may have seemed unconcerned, he was all caring. He showed his love through sacrifice and hard work. Even in his sickness, he was selfless. He sacrificed his wants and needs for his loved ones. He was a loyal husband, father, and friend. We lost a good one sadly enough, but his legacy will never be forgotten: "Am I right or am I wrong?" Please join us on May 15, 2021, at Brooks Funeral home for visitation from 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm and a small celebration of life service from 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm. In place of flowers, the family asks that you donate to the American Cancer Society or the American Heart Association for continued research and development.
