VIRGINIA CALCUTTI HAS PASSED AWAY

Virginia L. Calcutti of Croton on Hudson and formerly of Ossining, passed away on July 6, 2024. Virginia was born in Ossining on September 17, 1938, and was the daughter of the late Frank and Lillian (Bouley) Abreau. She was 85.

Virginia was a graduate of Ossining High School. She married Vito Calcutti, Sr. on May 14, 1961, at St. Augustine's Church in Ossining. She raised her family and worked as a secretary at Croton-Harmon School from 1974-2001. Virginia worked for the Croton-Harmon High School for 24 years as an Administrator to the teachers. She enjoyed working with the Athletic Department and was involved in all aspects of school sporting events. She was also involved for many years with the Croton Drum and Bugle Corp (Croton Cardinals), marching along-side the band during parades. Living within the Village of Croton for over 50 years, Virginia worked effortlessly in local politics for the betterment of the Village.

Virginia's passion to help others was one of her greatest qualities. Her sarcastic, quick-witted sense of humor always kept you on your feet. Her love for her immediate family (including her grand-dogs) was like no other. She was loved and will be greatly missed.

A private funeral was held at Saint Augustine Cemetery on July 9, 2024.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the American Diabetes Association. Obituary information for Virginia Calcutti (dorseyfuneral.com)
