    RIP Uncle Bry. One of my hero’s, mentors, my biggest fan no matter where I was at in my life. Believed in me when I was a young troubled kid, and helped get me out of that life and into college and teach me how to be an A student and strive for excellence instead of the C student I was in high school. You did this for many struggling kids during your career of service in teaching… you made a positive impact on many many lives, and there was no one else in the business that was as good at it as you. You loved the challenge of showing others that didn’t believe in themselves, that they could achieve success if they insisted upon themselves. You taught me success didn’t mean a thing unless it was your best effort. As you always said “you ain’t foolin me Mr” “know you like the back of me hand”, “stand up and be counted”. Whether it was the simple days of relaxing and going to nice restaurants, or a day trip up north to Ogunquit, or an honest tongue lashing when I was messing up in life… I’ll miss it all, but you’ll always be in my heart, until we meet again.

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.
