Lawrence Christopher Inzeo, after 94 years on this earth, entered eternal rest on Wednesday, December 13, 2017. He was a 42 year resident of Wappingers Falls.

Lawrence proudly served his country in the United States Army Air Corps (459 Bomb Group H) during World War II in the campaign to liberate Italy. After he was honorably discharged, Lawrence went on to work as a letter carrier for the United State Post Office in New York City. Later, he owned and operated a wine and spirits shop in Greenwich Village. He was a hardworking man and a good father, leaving behind a great deal of fond and loving memories.
