John F. Marino

Family & friends are invited to attend Visiting Hours on Sunday, July 1st from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the Vertuccio & Smith, Home for Funerals, 773 Broadway (Route 107) REVERE for John F. Marino, who passed at his Wakefield residence on Wednesday, June 27th, following a lengthy illness. His funeral will be conducted from the funeral home on Monday, July 2nd at 9:30 a.m., followed by a Funeral Mass in the Immaculate Conception Church (Corner of Beach St. & Winthrop Ave.) REVERE at 10:30 a.m., and immediately followed by interment in Woodlawn Cemetery, Everett.

Born & raised in East Boston, he was an alumnus of East Boston High School, Class of 1950. He lived in East Boston until he married in 1954, settling in Chelsea until moving to Wakefield in 2002. He would enter the U.S. Navy in July of 1952 & served until July of 1956 as a Seaman. He was most proud of his service to his country & as a young man was unable to serve during World War II and those post years. For over fifty years, he worked for the former Hy-Sil Manufacturing Co. of Revere, ending his career as their supervisor of printing. Dedicated and trustworthy, he, like so many local residents, enjoyed the family-like atmosphere that Hy-Sil provided. Both he and his wife Alida G. (Campatelli) Marino of 64 years, gave of themselves entirely for the life, education and care of their only son, John Augustus Marino, who came to them as a not-well child, afflicted with Cystic Fibrosis. The couple continued, until the passing of their son in December of 2005, to the commitment they had made for John’s safety and care.

Mr. Marino is the grandfather to Nicholas John Marino & his companion, Esther Cho of Wakefield & Julia Feeney of Sudbury. He is also lovingly survived by his daughter in-law, Regina M. (Mazzetti) Marino of Sudbury and several nieces & nephews. He was also the beloved brother of the late Mary V. Marino & James Marino.

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.
