Ida Rispoli Lorenzetti

Ida Lorenzetti passed away peacefully on December 27, 2025. Born on March 16, 1936, Ida lived her 89 years with a warm smile for all and a giving, generous heart for all her family and friends. Ida is preceded by her husband of 36 years, Vigilio (Virgil), her son Louis, and her five siblings Tom, Mike, Knute, Jerry and Connie. Whether family or friend, everyone was welcome at Aunt Ida's. Ida grew up in Rye and went to school there and later moved to Port Chester. She and Virgil moved to Rye in 1969 and was surrounded by the very best neighbors.
Ida helped Virg with his business, Port Chester Grinding Service. She also ran the kitchen for several years at Midland School in Rye. She was famous for her salad and the thickest PB&J sandwiches! She made so many cherished friends there. She was also preceded by her two lifelong friends, Mary and Roe. They loved walking the boardwalk at Playland to Oakland Beach.
It was her family that sustained her, and she them. Ida was always looking on the bright side, and when you just needed someone to say "come on in" that's where you went. Her home was warm and always welcoming. She told the funniest stories and was the best listener. She will be truly missed.
Ida is survived by her beloved daughter Lisa, whom she laughed with everyday up until her last. Her daughter in-law Sue, her Grandson Louis, his wife Nicole, and her great granddaughter Sophia, as well as many nieces, nephews, and their families who all loved her.
Ida always said "We have the best family!"
The family will receive friends at the Graham Funeral Home on Saturday January 3, 2026 from 4:00-7:00 PM.
