Robert E. Dandrow

Funeral Services were held privately for Robert E. Dandrow, who died on Saturday, August 6th at the Tufts Medical Center of Boston, following a fall he sustained while at his residence. He was 64 years old. Robert was a lifelong Revere resident, he attended Revere Public Schools and was an alumnus of Revere High School, Class of 1969. Immediately after graduation, Robert began to work at the Charlestown Navy Yard as a “Machinist”. After the Navy yard closed, Robert began a long career in the “Car Rental Business”. He worked for several of the larger firms, but maintained a longtime position at Enterprise Car Rental. He became an Inventory Control Manager with Enterprise. Due to an affliction with Celiac Disease, Robert was forced to retire much earlier than he had desired. Robert lived a very simplistic and humble life. He was an avid fisherman, often times with his Dad & his brothers by his side. He was also a quintessential “Boston Sports Fan”, reveling in every victory and agonizing with every loss. Most of all his family was paramount, especially spending time with his two nieces.

He is the Cherished son of Edward Dandrow, Sr. of Revere & the late Barbara D. (Cheetham) Dandrow. Loving brother of Frederick L. Dandrow & Edward Dandrow, Jr. & his wife Donna. Adored uncle of Melissa L. Dandrow & her fiancé Christopher Davis & Jennifer Dandrow and grand uncle of Ayden Davis, all of Revere.

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.
