John Sinnott

John Sinnott, a loving father and proud Poppy, passed away peacefully on July 28, 2025, at the age of 70. Born on April 26, 1955, in Bronx NY. John made Goshen, NY, his home for the past 47 years, where he built a life grounded in love, hard work, and strength.

John worked as a butcher for over 40 years at ShopRite, where he was known for his strong work ethic and dedication towards the company and his customers. He also enjoyed spending lots of time in his backyard, relaxing by his waterfall, cooking delicious meals for gatherings, and he found joy in beach days and fishing trips with family and friends. He maintained lifelong friendships with his Burnside Brothers, a bond he cherished deeply throughout his life.

He is survived by his four devoted children: John Sinnott (Marisa) of Goshen, NY; Dina Mascellino of Titusville, FL; Stephen Sinnott (Katie) of Newburgh, NY; and Alana Sinnott (Shawn) of Goshen, NY. His brother Daniel Sinnott of Barnaget, NJ.

He was greeted in Heaven by his wife of 36 years, Margaret Sinnott. Together, they raised a beautiful family, and John remained committed to their children and her memory for the rest of his life. His parents Frank and Pauline Sinnott. His brothers Ernest and Frankie and sisters Marie and Marilyn.

John was the cherished Poppy of nine beautiful grandchildren: Lauren, Ethan, Logan, Cameron, Brody, Maeve, Jack, Everly, and Caiden—each of whom he adored and took immense pride in.

Family and friends are invited to pay their respects during visitation on Thursday, July 31, 2025 from 4:00 - 7:00 PM at Donovan Funeral Home in Goshen, NY. Burial services will follow on Friday, August 1, 2025, at Gates of Heaven Cemetery at 11:30 a.m.
