After the untimely & traumatic death of her beloved husband, Walter L.Carino on April 9, 1957, Helen was faced with the sole responsibility of raising her two very young children. A strong-willed and courageous woman, she was stately attractive & fiercly intelligent. She entered the workfoce in 1959 and began the climb in the total male populated U.S. Postal Service at the South Postal Annex, Boston. Helen persevered among many obstacles studying, taking exams, and always maintaining a positive demeanor. Her pioneering stance took hold and she rose in position, until the pinnacle was hers. She was the only female supervisor in Area Logisitics until that time. She retired in 1986 after almost 30 (thirty) years of service. Helen was a member of the Everett Garden Club & Everett Senior Arts & Crafts Association.

She is the cherished mother of Walter L. Carino, Jr. & his wife Dr. Dorothy A. Carino, PhD., LCMHC,PLLC of Brookline, N.H. & Debra A. Walker & her husband, George F. Walker of Everett. She is the adored grandmother to Tara E. DiFelice & her husband, Steven of West Peabody. Also lovingly survived by her great-grandaughter Lauren M.DiFelice and many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces & grand-nephews. She is the last of her family & the endeared sister to the late John & Frank Faldetta, Mary DiMaio & Emily Sullivan. Interment will be in Woodlawn Cemetery, Everett.

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.
