    Uncle Mike was a great man who would give you the shirt of his back if you asked for it. I know of no one who didn’t like him and who he didn’t like, which is a rare trait in today’s world. He took my brother and I to our first Bruins (1971) and Red Sox (1968) games in those days when Bobby Orr and Yaz played to packed houses. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity he and Aunt Maria gave me when they allowed me to live with them while I attended college in Boston back in the 1970s. He will be missed and remembered often in my prayers.

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.

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.
