Adam Peppe

With profound sorrow, we announce the passing of Adam Peppe, a beloved son, devoted father, cherished brother, and treasured uncle, who left this world far too soon on September 29, 2025, at the age of 34.

To know Adam was to know the truest kind of kindness. He had the biggest heart—one that never judged a single soul, and instead welcomed all with warmth, laughter, and unconditional love. No one could fill those size 14 shoes.

As a father, he found his greatest joy. His daughter was his entire world—the light in his eyes, the reason behind his strength, and the purpose in every day. Everything he did was for her. Their bond was unbreakable, filled with laughter, and endless love.

As a brother and a son, Adam was loyal and always present. His family could count on him for anything—whether it was a helping hand or a perfectly timed joke to ease the tension. His love extended outward with no limits.

To his nieces and nephews, he was more than an uncle. He made each one feel like they were the most important person in the room. He showed up to every game, every birthday, always with a smile, encouraging words, and a heart full of pride.

Adam’s life was a testament to what it means to love without condition. His legacy is not just in the memories we share, but in the lives he touched so deeply simply by being himself.

He is survived by his beloved daughter, Kayden; his parents, Joseph and Theresa; his Grandmother Katherine Shost; his siblings, Desiree Peppe of New Rochelle, Jodi Lubbers (Jason) of Pleasant Valley, Christine Schmitt (James) of Pawling, Joseph Peppe (Melissa) of New Hope , CA, and Brett Peppe (Marissa) of New Fairfield, CT. 13 nieces and nephews, Sierra, Sydney, Brandon, Breyden, Tori, Fallon, Jason, Joshua, Olivia, Benjamin, Thomas, Giavanna, and Hannah, and many Aunts, Uncles, and cousins who will carry his love with them always.

He is predeceased by his maternal Grandfather, Stephen Shost, and maternal Uncle, William Shost, and his Paternal Grandparents, Argentina and Joseph Peppe.

Anyone who knows Adam knows his favorite saying was “Hakuna Matata”. So Adam, Hakuna Matata, we will take it from here.

A wake will take place at Beecher Funeral Home, Brewster, NY, on Sunday, October 5, 2025, from 2-6 p.m. In honor of Adam, please come as you are—he wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. A small service before burial will be held on Monday, October 6, 2025, at 11am with the burial to follow at Quaker Hill Cemetery at Christ Church, Pawling, NY.
