Vincent James Singley, 83, of Melbourne Beach, Florida, passed away on June 15, 2026. He was born on June 11, 1943, in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, to Vincent Floyd Singley and Stella Singley.

Vincent grew up in Bethlehem and graduated from Liberty High School. He went on to attend Temple University, where he earned his degree, and later became an electrical engineer. He also served in the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. In 1968, he married Deborah Daney, and together they moved to Vermont in 1969, where they built a life and raised their family in Jericho.

Vincent spent most of his career at IBM, where he worked for 30 years. He took great pride in his work as an electrical engineer and was known for his dedication, strong work ethic, and commitment to providing for his family. He worked hard throughout his life and made many sacrifices to give his children opportunities, including putting them through college.

Life in Vermont suited Vincent well. Along with his work at IBM, he enjoyed the land and the many projects that came with it. He raised beefalo and sheep, mowed acres of lawn, built stone walls, and always seemed to have something he was working on. He was strong, capable, and hardworking, with a hands-on spirit that those around him will always remember.

To his family and friends, Vincent — or Vinny, as many knew him — was playful, warm, and full of life. He loved music and he loved to dance. He enjoyed making people happy and had a way of bringing humor and warmth to ordinary moments. He was someone people could count on, and he cared deeply for his family. He also enjoyed his daily glass of wine, often asking with a smile, “Is it wine time?”

Vincent faced Alzheimer’s disease with strength and determination. He was a fighter, and he continued to show that strength through the end of his life.

Vincent was especially loved as “Poppy” by his grandchildren. He cherished his family and the time he spent with them, whether in Florida, Ohio, or Massachusetts.

Vincent is survived by his beloved wife, Deborah Daney Singley; his son, Daneyand Singley, and his wife, Bethany; his daughter, Chelsea Kozaczka, and her husband, Andre; and his grandchildren, Deklin, Daney, Wyatt, Hudson, and Luca. He was predeceased by his parents, Vincent Floyd Singley and Stella Singley.

A celebration of Vincent’s life may be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to an organization of your choice in Vincent’s memory.
