Dawn passed most unexpectedly on Wednesday, October 14th at Whidden Memorial Hospital, Everett. Although she has had serious health issues, her death has shocked the community & her fiancée, Anthony S. Muollo, Jr. with whom she made her home. Dawn moved to Revere in 1979, from Turner Falls, MA, where she was raised &educated. She was a 1976 alumna of Turner Falls High School. Twenty years ago, she & her fiancé, Anthony S. Muollo, Jr. “Tony”, went into a business partnership, on Revere St., Revere “D.A.M. Dart Depot”. The couple are well thought of throughout the community & were planning a wedding sometime in 2021.

She is the devoted daughter of Sandra J. (Morris) Cronin OF Lunenburg, Vermont & the late Robert “Moon” Mullen. She is the dear sister to Wayne Mullen & his wife, Wendy of Turner Falls, MA, Maria Mullen-Morse of West Concord, VT Celina Mullen-Waryasz of Laconia, New Hampshire, Deborah Mullen of Revere & Richard Mullen of Lunenburg, VT. She is also lovingly survived by her Feline Companion, “Ziggy” & many nieces & nephews. She also leaves to mourn her, the Muollo family of Revere, who Dawn adopted as her surrogate family. Her faithful feline friends “Honey-Bear” & Bubba-Lou” also have predeceased Dawn. Dawn was also a long-time member of the Wang-Change Pizzeria Club. And until recently, she had “gigs” as a stand-up comedian at several clubs, caffes, lounges & Eateries, here & in Turner Falls. And a lasting message from Dawn, to all of her family, friends & extended family; “The Bird is the Word”.

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.
