Pine Plains, NY – Kristopher James Cuddeback, 23, passed away on Tuesday, May 5, 2015 at the Albany Medical Center after suffering from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident.

Kris was born on June 27, 1991 in Sharon, CT, the son of Edie L. (Bryant) Cuddeback and Thomas A. Cuddeback.

A graduate of Pine Plains High School and Columbia Greene Community College, Kris always had a plan and a passion to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a police officer. After continuous hard work and dedication, Kris first worked for the Millerton Town Police. From there he worked for the Rhinebeck PD, Coeymans PD, and most recently was hired for his dream job at the Dutchess County Sheriff’s Department.

Kris, the Pine Plains Prom King, was engaged to be married to his high school sweet heart, Jessica Farkas, whom he loved with all his heart.

Kris had a heart of gold, a smile that lit up every room he walked in, and a hug like no other. From the day he was born, he blessed everything he touched. His final wish was to donate his body so others could live and because of his donation, over 200 lives will be saved.

In addition to his loving parents, Kristopher is survived by siblings Michelle (Chris) Johnson of Millerton, Kevin (Lori) Placentino of Germantown, Anthony (Rachel) Placentino of Harwington, CT, and Kyle Cuddeback of Millerton; paternal grandparents, Barbara and Daniel Cuddeback Sr. of Millerton, his nieces and nephews Katie, Dylan, Lexi, Anthony, and Rylee; his fiancé and best friend, Jessica Farkas; Aunts Linda, Margie, Kathy, DeeDee, Tina, and Robin; Uncles Bill, D.R. and Bob; as well as numerous cousins, extended family, and special cousin Tim Cuddeback.

Calling hours are 2 to 8 PM on Monday, May 11, 2015 at the Peck & Peck Funeral Home, 7749 South Main St. Pine Plains, NY.

Funeral service will be held at 11 AM on Tuesday, May 12, 2015 at the Faith Bible Chapel, 222 Silver Mountain Rd., Millerton, NY with Dennis Farley officiating.

A reception will follow at the Pine Plains Hose Company.
