Harry passed away at the age of 66, peacefully at Kaplan Hospice, Newburgh, where he resided for 7 months. He was born to Harry Grimaldi and Regina Michalski-Grimaldi who are both deceased.
He is survived by his siblings, Raymond Grimaldi of Croton on Hudson, NY and Regina Grimaldi-Carlson of Keller, Texas; a sister and brother-in-law; several nephews and nieces, cousins and his Aunt Ella and Aunt Dorothy.
Harry earned a BA in Art History at SUNY, NY and was an accomplished artist who generously bestowed many beautiful masterpieces to his relatives and friends. He spent his adult years residing in Middletown, NY. Harry will always be remembered for his candid and witty sense of humor and his positive outlook on life.

I had just reconnected with Harry after many years. Our telephone conversations made me feel close to Harry. He was inquisitive and imaginative as well as being very intelligent with a great sense of humour. I enjoyed our conversations. He is missed.
I took this photo of Harry during one of my visits at Kaplan and just loved how he posed for it.

Harry was the best brother-in-law one could wish for and I feel that I was blessed to have him in my life along with being an uncle to my children. He will be missed.

My condolences on the lost of your brother. Harry was my friend in school. He was smart, kind and fun to be around. When I remember him it always makes me smile. Rest in peace dear Harry.

Memories of Harry in childhood as cousins frequently gathered for holidays. Although I lost contact with Harry in adulthood, I am happy to have had the opportunity to spend time with him in the hospice center on several occasions. Our last visit was occupied with gin rummy that both his brother and I enjoyed playing with him. Rest in peace!
