    My sincere condolences to the Spellman family. Charlie and I had worked together on several projects during my time with IMS Gear in Virginia Beach and he was a good friend and mentor as well. Sorry to hear about his passing.

    So sorry for the loss of your husband and Dad. Our husband’s both died Christmas Eve of the same kind of brain tumor. So I understand the pain of your loss and the relief that he is free from fear and suffering. They are home with God. Bill’s service is Thursday. My heart and prayers will be with you as you go through your own grieving. Be strong. God bless you all.

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.

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.
