Vincent P. DeLisa, age 61, of Fair Haven, lost his fight with mental illness Feb. 27, 2024. Vinny had a larger-than-life personality, which injected energy into any room he entered. He was grounded in faith and full of life. Vin loved classic rock ’n’ roll, gardening and sending humorous texts. He had a fierce love and loyalty to both his family and friends. Anyone who had the privilege of knowing Vin will never forget him. He will be greatly missed.
Vincent was preceded in death by his brother Tom DeLisa. He is survived by his parents, Pat and Sue DeLisa; his sister Debbie Fitzgerald and his brother-in-law Stephen Fitzgerald; his sister-in-law Anne DeLisa; his two nephews, Patrick and Paul; and his three nieces, Allison, Bailey and Morgan.
The family plans to have a celebration of his life from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, July 20 at The Fair Haven Fire House, 645 River Road, Fair Haven. Thompson Memorial Home of Red Bank has been entrusted with the arrangements.
