    Dear Butchy

    Your brother’s death came as such a shock when Joe told me, and I extend my deepest sympathy to you and your family. He has left us at too young an age but will be remembered fondly for all that he accomplished in such a short life.

    It’s quite hard to say words that can ease the pain of the grieving heart. And It’s not easy to come up with the right wording to say how sorry I am for my friend Judy her daughter Nicole, son Tavian and her grandson Caleb, and for Skippy’s wife Patty. But from my heart Skippy was a wonderful funny crumpy guy that made me laugh everytime I was near him. I enjoyed spending time with him and the family and he will truely be missed. And if I can say anything that would help anyone from family to extended family remember the fun and happy times, and you will always have Skippy in your hearts and minds. Lov to all

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.
