    The deepest abyss of pain and grief the human spirit can endure, is the death of your loved one. May our Lord give the family the strength to get through this. For I did not know this beautiful lady, but knew some family members, my prayers go out to you. She has only retired to the room next door. You will see her again. God Bless you.

    I knew Cheryl from Eastern Bank. I loved it when Cheryl would wait on me. She was so warm and always smiling. I am so sad to hear of her passing.

    Cheryl, I met you when Courtney and Matthew were in the same kindergarten class at the Paul Revere School. I can not believe you are no longer with us. You were a beautiful person! Yesterday, I was driving home from work and the song “Stairway to Heaven” came on. I thought of you and how beautiful heaven must be. Fly high beautiful angel.
    Sending thoughts and prayers to Courtney, Michael and your family.

    You lit up a room bigger and brighter than any star, you were so warm and comforting that you made everyone around you feel so good. You were so special in everyway possible. I will miss seeing you and Christine(Thelma and Louise) side by side every where I would run into both of you. God may have you in his hands now but I know all your family and friends have you in their hearts forever. Rest Easy Beautiful Lady <3

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.
