Ross Peduto passed away on Sunday, August 7, 2022, at the age of 94. Ross remained happy and peaceful in his final years. He battled Alzheimer’s with grace and showed courage in facing life’s challenges with a smile.
Ross met the love of his life, Carole, at Oquaga Lake. It was love at first sight. They were inseparable and deeply in love for 62 years. He is survived by his wife, Carole, his sister Jean Johnson, his children; James (Denise Tatich), Karen (Jay Beckhorn), and Joan (Bruno Oblak), and three grandchildren; Michael (Skye), Lena, and Carole. He is also survived by his Connecticut cousins and his longtime buddy, Michael (Ann) Castaldi. He was predeceased by his parents, Anthony and Filomena, and his sister Lena Martin.
Ross was born in Old Forge, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Binghamton Central and then Broome Community College. He began working at Roberts Maintenance Supply as an intern and never left, building and owning the business over the next 50 years.
Ross’s obituary would be remiss without acknowledging Dr. Jagraj Rai’s dedicated care, compassion, and support which was deeply appreciated through the years.
Private funeral services will be held at the convenience of the family, and entombment in Riverhurst Cemetery, Endwell. Expressions of sympathy may be made in his memory to Mercy House of the Southern Tier, 212 N. McKinley Avenue, Endicott, NY 13760
