Ruth was born on November 20th, 1962. She was afflicted with epilepsy as a young girl, as well as throughout her life.

When she was out & about with her mom or family she was always very social and outgoing and full of life. Ruthy lived in North Reading for about 20 years before moving to Medford to the CHS Group Home. She was loved and cared for there. Ruthy enjoyed doing jigsaw puzzles and collecting her many stuffed animals. She was a Mini Mouse fanatic. She loved her bling and was very much a “Girly Girl”. Her family loved & cared for Ruth tremendously, she would spend many weekends home with her mom, Shirley, each other’s best pals. Her presence will be greatly missed, but she will be forever loved by all who knew her.

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.
