Obituary of Dylan J. Dinardo

Dylan J. Dinardo, 30, of Lansingburgh, entered into eternal life on Sunday, August 2, 2020. Born in Troy, NY, Dylan is the son of Joseph R. “Joe” Dinardo and Michele M. “Shelly Shu” Shufelt Dinardo (Ken Bouchard) and was a graduate of Stillwater High School and Hudson Valley Community College. Dylan loved fishing, camping, snowboarding, his trips to the ocean, going to the gym with his mom as well as his trips to the casino. He was excellent at card games and especially at Poker and Texas Hold’em. Dylan was also a pretty darn good athlete and competed with the Stillwater Battle Football program and as a Stillwater High School Warrior in baseball, football and basketball. He also led his Nor Rock Vikings Pop Warner football team in New Hampshire to the Super Bowl championship as their Quarterback. He was a true leader wherever he went. Dylan was the most caring, compassionate and forgiving person one could ever know and touched so many lives. He was always there to lend a helping hand regardless of the situation and would give you the shirt off of his back. Dylan was wise beyond his years and was truly an old soul. He will be missed by all and will be remembered for touching not only our lives but those of so many others. Dylan was employed by MJ Pelkey Pavement Maintenance Specialists in Cohoes and by the City of Troy Department of Public Works. Dylan is the beloved son of Joe and Shelly, devoted brother of Ashley Dinardo (Steve Feit), Niko J. Dinardo, Matthew Blair and Mackenzie Bouchard, adored grandson of Geraldine Tombolleo Dinardo and the late Joseph R. Dinardo, Sr. and James D. and Patricia Wisher Shufelt, loving nephew of JoAnne Christiansen (David), Christine Dinardo, Angela Dinardo-Suppies (late, Robert), James J.
