Peter J. Bellamy

The family of Peter J. Bellamy is saddened to announce his passing on October 10, 2024 at the age of 57 years. Pete was surrounded by loved ones in the comfort of his home in Ossining, New York. Pete lived his life with a sense of loyalty to family, pursuit of happiness and new experiences, but most of all championing intelligence paired with kindness. Pete was born in Saint Asaph in the United Kingdom and grew up in Colwyn Bay in North Wales. Pete was the youngest of five children to parents, Joseph and Dorothy Bellamy. He spent his youth assisting with his family’s business, The Olives, exploring the Welsh seaside, and tinkering with computers. Pete attended University at Bristol Polytechnic studying Systems Analysis. He took his first job at WH Smith’s and enrolled as a reservist in Her Royal Majesty’s Territorial Army. Pete found his calling in his work as a business consultant, first with Ernst & Young, then with Capgemini. He enjoyed the challenge of working with different companies and people, keeping up with fast paced and innovative technology and traveling the world for different work projects. It was one project that brought him to New York, New York in February of 2005. On that trip, Pete fell in love with his future wife, Aimee and immigrated to New York. Pete and Aimee married in an epic New York Wedding in May 2009. In November 2010, Pete took on his most rewarding job as a father to his amazing son, Harrison Bellamy. In the years following, they built lives in both New York City and Wales. Pete returned to Ernst and Young, completed an MBA at Bangor University and finished his 35 year career as an executive director, global leader in his field and respected colleague. A dear friend gave an accurate description of Pete’s unique ability to “collect friends and people to him” as he saw and focused on their distinct and best qualities. Pete loved meeting new and diverse people from all over the world. His quick-witted, charming and gregarious personality won him a solid ‘collection’ of friends and colleagues worldwide. Pete was a true renaissance man. He believed in charitable acts and often gave of his money, time and expertise selflessly and anonymously. He was accomplished in gardening, cooking, photography and woodworking. In his spare time, he enjoyed walking his beloved Italian Greyhounds (Duff, Monty, Tiggy, Oli and Hugo), experimenting with new technology, biking, paddle boarding and completing DIY projects on both his homes. Pete welcomed visitors and was always up for a social visit or trying out a new restaurant for drinks or food with family, friends and work mates. During the past year, Pete found peace and enjoyment with his family back at his home, Fredena, in Wales overlooking the Irish Sea. Despite his many accomplishments, Pete’s openly most proud legacy was his son, Harrison Bellamy of whom he is survived, in addition to his devoted wife, Aimee Bellamy and his loving siblings and family, Sharon Smith (Tommy Smith), Quentin Bellamy (Kate Johnson), Sarah Taylor and Miriam Bellamy (Gerry Taylor) and his in-laws, Ron and Mary Kuhn. Pete was preceded in death by his brother, Stuart Bellamy, and his parents, Joseph and Dorothy Bellamy. Pete was an adventurous spirit and a seasoned world traveler, yet he maintained close ties with his British community of family and friends. His sense of self and heart belonged with his Welsh home in Rhos on Sea. Anyone who met him knew that the world was a better place because of this amazing human being and beautiful soul. He will be dearly missed. Pete’s Tribute Luncheon will take place immediately following the service at the Sleepy Hollow Hotel, located at 455 S Broadway, Tarrytown, NY 10591. The family invites all in attendance to his funeral service to join us. Donate To Honor Pete Bellamy by Supporting Harrison's Education: https://gofund.me/48cb4fd8
