Philip A. Pinto Jr.

Philip A. Pinto Jr., passed away on January 8th, surrounded by his family who adored and loved him more than anything in this world. Phil fought a courageous battle against pancreatic cancer, and as with anything life presented him with, he did so with strength, dignity and grace.

Philip was born on March 24, 1967 to Philip A. and Joan Pinto Sr.. He was raised in Eastchester, NY and dutifully served his community as a Captain in the Eastchester Fire Department for over 32 years. His leadership, dedication, and friendship was highly esteemed and admired by the community.

Phil was the most devoted to his family and friends. He took pride in always going above and beyond for those that he loved. He was passionate and proud of what he accomplished in his life, particulary raising a beautiful family and helping others in need, both in and out of uniform. Phil was the definition of a true hero.

Phil is survived and cherished by his wife of thirty years, Lisa, his children Lauren (Tim) and Philip, and his father Philip A. Pinto Sr. He is also survived by his siblings Anthony (Carol) Pinto and Diana (Thomas) DiCarlo, sister-in-law Pam Bruno, along with all of his nephews and nieces. He is predeceased by his mother, Joan, and his in-laws, John and Marilyn Bruno.

Phil's impactful legacy as an incredible husband, father, friend, colleague, and role model will continue to shine through his loved ones. Phil lived his life with gratitude and his faith at the forefront, and has instilled these morals in his family and friends.

Phil's family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to The Lustgarten Foundation in Phil’s memory, so that a cure may be found for others suffering from pancreatic cancer and their families.
