He is predeceased by his paternal grandparents, Frank and Victoria Fanelli.
Friends will be received from 4 pm to 8 pm on Monday at the Gilpatric-VanVliet Funeral Home, 339 Broadway, Ulster Park, Town of Esopus.
The Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated 10 am, Tuesday at St. Augustine Church, 55 Main St, Highland, Fr. Thomas L. Lutz, celebrant. Interment will follow in the family plot at St. Peter's Cemetery, Poughkeepsie.
