    Kara, my heart is aching for you and your precious little Mia. I love you guys so much. You’ve always been one of my most favorite couples! My favorite memory of you is at your baby shower. The love between the two of you could be felt deeply. Just your smiles alone lit the entire room. Anthony has such a special soul and he’ll be missed by many people.
    To the rest of the family, my prayers and thoughts are with you. I lost my brother at the young age of 36. I am so, so sorry for your loss.

    Mia and Kara and family,
    Sorry for your loss. He loved you all very much. He was a good neighbor that never seem to be upset when I teased him. My heart goes out to all of you. I can’t believe he’s in Heaven now and gone from our life. If you need anything Kara and Mia let me know. He’s in all of your hearts where he is loved and safe. Times like this is hard to come up with words to say. All we have are memories to hold on to. Remember the good time you had with himlove you both Darlene

To all our families, friends, and residents of Revere, East Boston, and surrounding communities of the North Shore,

We would like to announce that after 37 years of caring for thousands of families at our 773 Broadway location, on January 31st, 2023 we will be officially RELOCATING, to our new location at 262 Beach St., Revere.
On September 30th, 2022, we proudly purchased the Vazza “Beechwood” Funeral Home – DiPietro and Vazza, Inc. A name that has served families for 102 years. We feel blessed that with all of the interest, the Vazza Family chose us to carry on their century old business and family name. We will become Vertuccio Smith & Vazza, Beechwood Home for Funerals. We will continue to honor the Vazza name and continue our commitment the same way that we always have. We also look forward to having both Louis Vazza and Jessica Vazza Ferragamo alongside of us, as we come together as one.
Our reputation has always been our biggest asset. For many years people always wanted us to have a larger facility, now our facility is the largest funeral home in the area. We will be making many beautiful upgrades to allow our families to have the most elegant facility to honor their loved one.
Although this announcement is bittersweet, as we say goodbye to our home, we are forever grateful for all of you for placing your constant faith and trust in us to care for your loved one. We will continue to do what we are best known for.
Thank you for your friendship and continued support.
God bless you all.
Faithfully,

Your friends at Vertuccio Smith and Vazza.
