In loving memory of Ralph Anthony Scannapieco

Ralph Anthony Scannapieco, 70, a beloved husband, father,

grandfather, cousin, and friend, went home to be with our Lord Jesus

on Thursday, May 14, 2026, in the comfort of his home in Bethpage,

NY. Born on May 22, 1955, Ralph's life was a testament to love,

laughter, and dedication.

Ralph was a man of many talents and passions including

photography, baseball, horse racing, music, dancing, nature,

gardening, and literature. Whether it was a perfectly-timed

punchline delivered during our family dinners or a fictional ending to

a newspaper article, Ralph had a knack for finding humor

everywhere. While Ralph didn't love to fly, he did love to travel and

would drive just about anywhere for an adventure. He was a hard

working business owner for over 40 years, where he worked

tirelessly to provide for the family he loved more than words could

express.

Ralph is survived by his loving wife of 48 years, Eileen, and their six

children: Lisa-Marie (Blair) Rafuse, Trina Scannapieco, Michael

(Lauren) Scannapieco, Jessica (Victor) Rivera, Stephanie

Scannapieco, and Shannon (Tariq Tyner) Scannapieco. He will be

deeply missed by his 13 grandchildren. Ralph's memory will live on

through his family, whose lives have been enriched by his

unwavering love and support.

A memorial service to celebrate Ralph's life will be held on Friday,

May 22, 2026 at 11 am at the Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn.
