Clarence Vincent "Vinnie" Fitzpatrick
On Saturday, December 7, 2019, C. Vincent Fitzpatrick, raised in Norfolk, VA but a long-time resident of Montclair, VA passed away peacefully of natural causes in the loving company of his family. Beloved husband of the late Jackie Fitzpatrick for 54 years, son of the late Alice Willis Fitzpatrick and Clarence Thomas Fitzpatrick, brother of the late Joseph T. Fitzpatrick and half-brother to Oliver Wendell Grew; father of Teresa Fitzpatrick of Vero Beach, FL; Rosemary Suprano and her husband Joseph of Mt. Lebanon, PA; Andrew Fitzpatrick and his wife Linda from Charlotte, NC; in addition to Beth Fitzpatrick and her husband Dave from Nederland, CO.
Vinnie was a proud “Railroad Man” for over 44 years and he eventually retired from The Association of American Railroads in 1991. He spent many of his golden years enjoying the company of his wife Jackie and traveling to places near and far; most notably to Europe and the land of his forefathers…Ireland. He especially loved the annual beach trips that Jackie painstakingly planned that brought the entire family together year after year. He continued his lifelong love with the game of golf and never stopped pursuing the ability to “shoot his age”! His many grandchildren include T.C. (Jen), Taylor, Kenny and the late Jackson Corrigan; Joseph (Katherine) and Elyse Suprano; Kyla and Nevan Fitzpatrick; and Angie Ritt. He cherished his great-grandchildren Jackson Corrigan, Matthew Corrigan and Evelyn Rose Suprano; and he also kept a loving spot in his heart for his step-grandchild P.J. Kunwar along with many loving nieces and nephews.
Vince was privileged to have loving caretakers during his last years including his son-in-law Dave Ritt and, during his final three years, Nola Ciancio, whose unconditional love and support provided him a very special quality of life. His many friends will miss his devoted and loyal friendship, wry sense of humor and a willingness to reach out to others in a warm and embracing way.
