Corbo, Nicholas P. affectionately known as "Daddy" and "Poppy" to his
children and grandchildren, and "Nicky" or "Nick" to his friends and
family, passed away peacefully on Friday, March 30, 2012. He was 66
years old. Nick passed away at his home in Cornwall, NY, surrounded by
his devoted family, exactly three months to the day from when he
received the diagnosis of terminal cancer. Not one of those days was
spent in self-pity, because he said he had a good life. Instead, he
spent his time praying for those who could not pray for themselves. Nick
was born September 15, 1945 in Newburgh, NY to Nicholas and Catherine
Corbo, both of whom preceded him in death. He considered himself a
lifelong resident of Newburgh, where he graduated from NFA in 1964. He
was proud to be a 12-year member of Local 137 Operating Engineers of
Briarcliff Manor, NY, and a 25-year member of Local 417 Ironworkers
Union of Newburgh, NY. He owned and operated Cor-steel Fabricators &
Erectors, and Corbo's Welding before that. In addition to erecting
buildings and bridges, Nick created many pieces of art, though he humbly
referred to them as "Nicky-nacks". He loved welding and carving. He also
loved spending time on his boat, The Piquad, though more time was spent
working on it than sailing it. In fact, Nick loved anything he could fix
or rebuild. Always devoted to giving back, he was highly involved in his
community on Okaloosa Island in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. With a smile
and a good deed for almost anyone he encountered, Nick had countless
friends. He is survived by his loving wife, Carol Corbo, and his four
beloved children: Nicole Corbo, Jeannine Corbo, Wendy Doyle and her
husband, Tom Doyle, and Ed Burke and his wife, Tara Burke. His three
precious grandchildren: Tommy and Matty Doyle and Ashton Burke, also
survive him, in addition to his aunts, Fortune Burkoski, Frances
Carfora, Lee Fratto, Barbara Colello, and Carol DeCandia, as well as
many cherished cousins. Nick measured his wealth by the love of his
family and, therefore, considered himself excessively rich. He also
considered himself a good son, a good husband, and a good father, but we
all considered him extraordinary. At Nick's request, there will be no
service or memorial; however, donations may be made in his name to St.
Jude Children's Research Hospital: 800-822-6344. Additionally, his
eldest daughter, Nicole, will be gathering stories to create a book in
his honor. If you would like to submit a story or send the family
condolences, please do so by emailing nicky.p.stories@gmail.com

Hiten, Richard D.

Vegas, Nevada after a struggle with esophageal cancer. Dick was a 1964 NFA
grad who, shortly after graduation, joined the U.S. Marines and nobly
served his country during the Vietnam Conflict. In my mind's eye I can
still see a teenage Dick Hiten with a big smile on his face, waiting for
his friends in front of Vern Harding's store on South Street. He had the
confidence of Fonzy, and justifiably so. Dick could do just about anything
he set his mind to do. He had a brilliant mind and was an outstanding
athlete. I still wish I could play baseball like Dick Hiten. He was my
lifelong friend Tom's older brother, and I idolized him. By all those who
loved, respected, and looked up to him, he is sorely missed.
