Robert J Mazzuchelli

Robert J Mazzuchelli, better known as "Muzzy", or "285" passed away from cardiac arrest on May 24th 2015 at the young age of 54. Muzzy was born on August 27, 1960 to the late Robert P Mazzuchelli and Anne (Meyler) Mazzuchelli.

Muzzy is not only survived by his two greatest joys in life, his children, Jenna & Dean Mazzuchelli, their mother, Kelly Mazzuchelli, his sister and brother in law, Cathy & Michael Tartaglia, and their children Dana & Brandon Tartaglia, but also by his endless amount of lifelong friends and co-workers. Muzzy was born and raised in Eastchester, NY and spent memorable summers, vacations and weekends with his family and friends in Copake, NY. When it was time for Muzzy to raise a family of his own, he knew Copake was the clear choice. During his life Muzzy created a circle of friends that no distance, time, or life paths could separate. As his friends will say, he was the "leader" of this group. While creating a family within his friends, Muzzy ("285") also gained a family at Indian Point Energy Center where he was soon to celebrate his retirement of 30 years in just a few months.

If he was known for only one thing, it was his sense of humor. His catch phrases, nicknames, Facebook postings, stories and one of a kind personality spread happiness and laughter to all he touched.

Though Muzzy's heart is now still, it provided everyone who was fortunate to know him, with memories that will beat on forever.

Friends may call on Saturday May 30th, 2015 from 11:00-3:00 at the Peck and Peck Funeral Home, 8063 State Rt. 22 in Copake, NY. (518) 329-2121.

Private services will be held at the convenience of the family.
