Matteo Osso, 81, of Tappan, NY, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, April 26, 2020. Proud father of four sons, Luigi, Antonio, Matteo and Stefano. Adored grandfather of Sophia Rojas. Cherished brother and brother-in-law of Pietro and Justina Osso, Rosina and Antonio Veltri, Mario and Angela Osso, Franco and Pina Osso and Ida and Pietro Martire. Loving uncle of Claudia Gollub, Alexander Osso, Liliana Nash, Gianna Martire, Susan Veltri, Sandra Pressimone, Marilene Puma, Angela Beck, Orietta Monterosso and Michael Osso. Beloved great-uncle of Christopher, Cassandra, Cristina, Adrianna, Gianna, Giuliana, Anthony, Ava, Eliana, Max, Fabiana, Ilenia, Zachary and Peter. Also survived by Franca Osso.
Matteo was a devoted father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. He came from Calabria, Italy as an immigrant, not speaking the language, with $2,000 to his name and built the American dream with hard-work and sacrifice as a successful entrepreneur. No day was too long for work, but he would always be there for his family. Family & respect was everything to him. He worked tirelessly to provide for his family and made sure they had everything they needed. He loved his garden and those of you who got the pleasure of enjoying the fruits of his labor, knew that this was one of his pride and joys!
Due to the current health crisis, although funeral services are private, there will be a vehicle procession in front of Matteo’s home. The procession will commence at the corner of Austin and Dederer on Wednesday, April 29, 2020 at 11:30AM. Please line up your cars, with your hazard lights on to pay your respects as the deceased and family will be in front of the home to accept your condolences. We ask that you remain in your vehicles at all times.
