Vincent Charles Piselli

Vincent Charles Piselli, beloved father, grandfather, great-grandfather, educator, musician, and friend, passed away peacefully at his home in Morrisville, PA, on August 14, 2026, at the age of 90.

Vincent was born July 31, 1936, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Vincent L. Piselli and Hilda Matersteck Piselli, both of whom predeceased him. Though his journey began in Philadelphia, Morrisville became his cherished home in 1962—a community he faithfully called his own for over six decades.

A proud graduate of Northeast Catholic High School for Boys, Vincent's dedication to learning led him to LaSalle College, where he continued to cultivate his love of knowledge. His thirst for growth did not end there; he later earned his Master's Degree from Temple University, embodying a lifelong commitment to education that would become the throughline of his life.

Before embarking on his professional path, Vincent served his country as a proud Veteran of the United States Navy, holding true to values of service and responsibility that would shape his journey in the years to follow.

Vincent devoted 25 years to nurturing young minds as a school teacher with the Trenton School District at Junior 1. His influence reached far beyond the classroom—he captured memories with his love of photography, creating the Junior 1 yearbook that many still treasure. His musical passion found him teaching guitar at Princeton Day School and sharing his talents at AZ Music Studio, inspiring countless students with melody and warmth. For Vincent, music was a beacon. He loved to play guitar and lent his talents to several bands throughout his lifetime, filling rooms and hearts with the gentle strum of his strings.

He had an adventurous spirit that came alive during his travels to Italy, where the beauty of the world met his wanderer's soul. Whether behind a lens or at the racetrack—where he enjoyed horseracing and the thrill of the track—Vincent found joy in the colorful tapestry of life.

Family was the center of Vincent’s universe. He is survived by his devoted son, Anthony L. Piselli, and daughter-in-law Shelleen Piselli; his caring daughters, Laura Marie Collazo and her companion Roy Ross, and Michele Miller and son-in-law Mark Miller. Vincent’s pride and affection radiated through his grandchildren—Amanda, Tami, Rachel, Alyssa, E.J., Danny, Jenna, and Michael—each a living testament to his kindness and perseverance. His legacy continues to blossom in his great-grandchildren: Angela, Evan, Gianna, and Brayden. Though words can scarcely capture the fullness of his love for each, his spirit endures in every shared story, every song, and every quiet moment of remembrance.

Vincent was a devoted parishioner of Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Church in Morrisville, anchoring his faith and values in service to others.

Friends and family will gather to honor Vincent’s life at St. Ignatius of Antioch Roman Catholic Church, 999 Reading Avenue, Yardley, PA 19067, where visitation will begin at 9:00 a.m. followed by Mass at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, August 22, 2026. Interment will follow at Holy Cross Cemetery, 626 Baily Rd, Yeadon, PA 19050, at 12:15 p.m.

Vincent Charles Piselli will be remembered for his gentle heart, unwavering devotion to family and community, the music he wove through every chapter of his life, and the countless lives touched by his wisdom, patience, and generous spirit. His light will remain, forever cherished by those who loved him.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you please consider making a memorial contribution in Mr. Piselli's name to Accent Hospice of Bristol, 1501 Grundy Lane, Suite 100, Bristol, PA 19007.
