Kyle Christopher McSweeney

Kyle Christopher McSweeney, aged 37, of Norwood, NJ passed away suddenly. He is survived by his parents Thomas and Cynthia McSweeney (nee DeGloria), his older and younger brothers Ryan and Sean McSweeney, sister in law Lauren McSweeney, and nieces whom he cherished, Taylor and Madison McSweeney.

Kyle was an employee of the State of New Jersey as a Taxation Investigator for 14 years.  He was a graduate of Northern Valley Regional High School and later earned his bachelors degree at Qunnapiac University.  He was an accomplished wrestler starting at the age of 7 winning numerous tournaments and ultimately winning the State Wrestling Tournament as a freshman in high school. His success resulted in both his brothers to join him in this demanding sport.

Kyle loved spending time at the beach and driving his car wherever the road would take him. He loved music and played guitar from the time he was eight.  Kyle had the privilege of meeting his favorite band 311, and created a personal long-term friendship with the band’s bassist P-nut. Over the years, he attended over 60 of their concerts across the country.  The ultimate gift was playing backstage at Hammerstein Theater in New York City with the bassist P-Nut when he was 17. 

Kyle was a devoted Dallas Cowboys fan and traveled several times to Dallas to watch his favorite team play in their new stadium. He was there for the first wild card playoff when they prevailed over Donovan McNabb and the Eagles.   

In his spare time, Kyle would volunteer for Peace4Paws in Westwood and transport dogs to new adopted homes. Often, he would travel hundreds of miles to help transport dogs in need of new homes.  His dedication and contributions were recognized and awarded at their annual fundraiser.  

Services will be held at Pizzi Funeral Home in Northvale, NJ on Friday November 1, 2024 from 3-7 pm with a Funeral Mass at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart in Tappan, New York  on Saturday November 2, 2024 at 11 am.

Peter A. Rinaldi, Sr.

Peter A. Rinaldi, Sr., 63, of Norwood, NJ, passed away on Wednesday, October 23, 2024. Beloved husband of 43 years to Lisa (nee Mistretta). Cherished father of Peter Jr. and his wife Adrienne, Patricia Towey and her husband John-Paul, Lauren Talian and her husband Alex and Matthew and his wife Melissa. Proud and loving grandfather of Taylor, Peter, Ellie, Trevor, Gino, Emilia, Penelope, Dylan, Matteo, Nico, and Arleigh. Dear brother to Denise DeMarzo and husband, Vincent, Karen Horan and husband, Chris and Vincent, Jr. and wife, Denise. He was predeceased by his mother, Arline (nee Thorpe) and his father, Vincent, Sr. Also survived by many loving nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends.

Aside from his many talents, Pete was an avid, and expert hunter and sportsman. He loved spending time outside, no matter the season and no matter the task. He admired the beauty of a clean yard, after a long, hard days work, as much as he reveled in the changing colors of the autumn leaves while shed hunting in the woods.

Pete was a fixer. It didn’t matter if it was a mechanical issue with an engine, a tangled-up fishing line or a problem one of his kids was having; he was going to figure out how to fix it.

When Pete entered the room, his presence was felt by all. He didn’t go by “Big Grandpa” for no reason. When the roar of that big red truck came pulling down the street a crowd of his grand babies would be cheering, “Big Grandpa’s here!”and nothing was bigger than the smile on his face when he saw them.

His family was his world, his everything.

Only the love of our Lord, and Savior, Jesus Christ can fill the hole left in our hearts. Until we meet again, in Heaven. We love you.

Visitation wil be Sunday, November 3, 2024 from 2-5 PM at Pizzi Funeral Home, 120 Paris Avenue, Northvale.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Pete’s memory to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, www.t2t.org, would be greatly appreciated.
