    Kenny, Steve and Tommy, I want to offer my condolences on your Dad’s passing. He was a great guy and a gentleman! I have great memories of the Foulds family, from your parents, grandparents and your uncle Sammy. I always enjoyed playing Santa Clause at the annual Christmas party even though you guys always knew it was me!

    Kenny, Stephan and Tommy- your father will be missed. He was very special to me. I was lucky to have grown up with the Foulds and the Knights being my big cousins. I have wonderful memories of your Mom and Dad and the four boys running around your Grandparents house. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

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.
