Keith M. Fischetti, born on July 27, 1968, in Colorado Springs, Colorado, passed away on February 16, 2026, in Islip, New York. He is remembered as a devoted husband, father, brother, and friend, whose life touched many and whose love will continue to resonate in the hearts of those who knew him.
Keith is survived by his beloved wife, Kimberly Fischetti, who shared in many cherished memories throughout their life together. He was a loving son to Grace Fischetti and the late George Fischetti, and he leaves behind his devoted brother, George Fischetti (Deirdre). His family also includes cherished niece Amanda Schiavone, nephews Alex Schianone and Frankie Cavallone, and close relatives such as his sister-in-law Lesley (Peter) Cusano and brother-in-law Michael (Val) Schiavone. He was further blessed with a supportive mother-in-law, Ruth Ann Schiavone.
Keith's warmth extended beyond his immediate family; he was also a dear friend to Nicole and Angelo Cavallone, and will be remembered fondly by all who had the pleasure of knowing him, including his beloved Shihtsu, Pennie Layne.
