Obituary of Bryan R. Panzanaro

It is with great sadness that the family of Bryan R. Panzanaro announces his sudden passing.  While on a business trip to Seattle Washington on Thursday, July 25, 2019, the 45 year-old lifelong Peekskill resident passed away. Bryan was a Regional Manager in the Aviation Division of ABM Industries Inc. which is headquartered in New York City.

In an internal communication announcing his shocking passing to the employees of ABM, he was eulogized by his company as “an incredible manager, colleague, father and husband.  His dedication and commitment have been an integral part of our success and growth in the Northeast.”  The statement went on to quote his manager, who said, “He is the sweetest, hardest-working, humble and caring person I know.”

Bryan was a graduate of Peekskill High School, Class of 1992, and earned a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Nevada at Las Vegas (UNLV).

Bryan was an avid basketball player, fan and coach.  He served as the Head Coach for the Modified and Junior Varsity Basketball Teams at Peekskill High School, as well as Assistant Head Coach of the Varsity squad and enriched the lives of hundreds of young men along the way.  He loved playing golf, watching and rooting for the New York Knicks, Yankees and the New York Giants.  He had a green thumb and enjoyed spending time in the kitchen and at the barbecue grill. Most of all however, Bryan loved cooking Sunday dinner for his wife and daughters which he did just about every week of the year.

Bryan leaves behind his wife Kimberly (Vesce) and four beautiful daughters; Emilie (18), Ava (15), Nina (13) and Ella (8).  He is survived by his parents Sharon Skinner and Louis W. Panzanaro Jr., sisters Stacy, Kim and Sarah, and brother Michael.  He is also survived by his mother and father-in-law, sister and brother-in-law, step-mother, step-sister, step-brother and a large number of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and many, many friends.  He is predeceased by his brother Louis W. Panzanaro III.
