Vincent Guariglia, 75, of New Windsor N.Y. and Fort Myers,
Florida, went to be with his Lord on July 14, 2023. The Son
of the late Vincent Guariglia and Louise Guariglia
(Jannotti) he was born on July 9, 1948 in Newburgh, N.Y.
Vin was a wonderful, loving, smart, caring soul to his wife,
his family and everyone he knew. He was an artist, a
musician, and a poet.
He worked for the Department of Defense at West Point
Military Academy for thirty eight years, a faithful and
dutiful servant, who loved his country and lived by the
Cadet code "Duty, Honor, Country".
He was a life member at the New Hamburg Yacht Club on the
Hudson River. He and his wife were boaters and very active
members for 20 years or more. There, he was known as head of
the "fun" committee, always interjecting lighthearted fun
and wisdom into everything.
Vin made every family event a true celebration with games,
laughter and family stories that we couldn't get enough of.
He brought a smile to anyone who knew him with his positive
energy and good-hearted nature.
Vin is survived by his loving wife Donna Guariglia, his
sister Philomena Mahood, his nephew Michael Mahood, his life
partner Jennifer Aiello, and his sons, Michael and Matthew,
his niece Susan Benedict, her husband Duane Benedict and
their children, Dustin and Dillon, Dillon's fiancee Julia
Recine and her son Patrick, and many cousins, family and
friends.
Vin will be deeply missed by whoever knew him and will be
remembered for his love and dedication to his wife and
family.
