Richard F Kingsley

Richard F. Kingsley (Rick) of Pearl River, NY passed away on November 4, 2024 at the age of 62 after his battle with cancer.

He was born in Manchester, CT on December 6, 1961.  He is the son of Richard F. Kingsley and Ruth Marek.

Rick worked at American Compressed Gases Inc, in Yonkers, NY for over 20 years. He was a die-hard New England Patriots fan and loved to barbecue and cook for his family and friends.  He also loved spending time at the beach in the summer and could always be counted on to help a neighbor or friend around the house.  He loved crafting projects out of wood and listening to classic rock.  Rick was kind, generous, and had a very unique sense of humor.  He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by his wife Margit Kingsley; two daughters, Michelle Tirado (Armando Tirado) and Alyssa Schmidt (Kevin Schmidt); three sisters, Elizabeth Thompson (Ray Bartko), Toni Ann Cannone, and Deborah Heffernan (Justin Heffernan); and his mother, Ruth Everett.

A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, November 16, 2024 from 2-5pm at Wyman Fisher Funeral Home in Pearl River, NY.
