Hyde Park- Vincent J. Amodeo, 81, died peacefully Sunday, November 21, 2021 at home in Hyde Park. He was the son of Philip and Magdalen Amodeo and was born on April 23, 1940 in Poughkeepsie, NY.

Vincent was predeceased by his parents, Magdalene and Philip Amodeo and his loving wife Maureen Amodeo in which they are now happily reunited.
Vincent will be missed by all those who loved and knew him and his passing will leave a void that will never be replaced. He was a fountain of good advice, corny jokes, random facts and unlimited patience but above all, he was a loving father to the end.
