Peter H. Vicinanza

He is survived by his wife of 17 years, Faith (Smith) Vicinanza, his son Gregg Vicinanza of New Jersey, daughter Melissa Vicinanza of New Jersey, three step-children, Michael Arroyo of Southbury, Aaron Arroyo of Newtown, Christina Arroyo of Wolcott, and eight grandchildren.

Born in Astoria, NY on April 30, 1940, he was the son of the late Mario and Ethel (Leonard) Vicinanza. Peter was a retired information technology executive, photographer, author, and entrepreneur. He has had flash fiction and poetry vignettes published in periodical's Bent Pin Quarterly and Connecticut Review, among others, and his photography has been on exhibit around the state.

In 2005, Peter and his wife ventured on a 2,500 mile bicycle trip from Key West, FL to St. Stephan , Canada over a three month period. "On The Road" is an exhibit of their photography that is primarily focused and gathered from the digital photographs taken during that trip. That exhibit was on view at the C.H. Booth Library in Newtown during the month of September.

Friends will gather to celebrate Peter's life on Sunday, October 14th, from 2 to 6 PM at a family home. If you wish to attend, please contact Faith Vicinanza at [email protected] for details.
