CARLO LODI

LODI, Carlo Age 67, of Newbury, died on October 9, 2025, at the Kaplan Family Hospice House in Danvers. After beating pancreatic cancer for almost five years, he passed away from related complications. He was the husband of Linda (Cottone) Lodi, of Waltham, for 28 years. Born on March 13, 1958, he was the son of the late Ruston F. and Clara (Dwinell) Lodi. Carlo was raised in Franklin and had lived in Newbury with his wife, Linda, since 2012. Carlo was a 1976 graduate of Franklin High School and a 1980 graduate of Norwich University, where he majored in Environmental Engineering and Technology. He was a track and field standout in high school and college. After college, he went on to have a successful career as a highly respected and knowledgeable expert in the regulation of air pollution, helping companies solve complex compliance issues. He traveled the U.S. to monitor large commercial facilities such as power plants, paper mills, factories, cruise ships and waste management plants, bringing his expertise to Korea and Russia as well. He began his career at Environmental Research & Technology, Inc. and later worked at Eastmount Environmental, NRG Energy and National Grid. For the last 14 years, he was an environmental manager for air programs at Win Waste Innovations (Wheelabrator). Carlo and Linda were an inseparable pair who, when not working, enjoyed cooking, outdoor adventures, traveling the world, concerts and time with friends and family. In the winters, you could always find them skiing or snow shoeing in the mountains at Killington. In the summers, they enjoyed biking, hiking, golf, fishing, and often kayaked on the Parker River, Plum Island or down in Truro on Cape Cod with the Cottone, Aniello and Lodi families. Carlo also had a keen eye for nature photography and was a master at the barbecue. Carlo and Linda's fun-loving spirit lifted all those around them. And no matter what they were doing, they always made time to shower attention and go for walks with their beloved dog, Kona. Carlo is survived by his brother, Ruston F. Lodi of Newton, Andrea Pia Silbert of Mansfield, U.S. Army Lt. General Maria Barrett of Fort Gordon, GA and U.S. Army Major General Paula Lodi of Frederick, Maryland. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews, who knew Carlo and Linda as the cool uncle and aunt that they always enjoyed being with on family vacations and holidays, especially the Feast of the Seven Fishes on Christmas Eve at Carlo and Linda's house. A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, November 9, at the Black Swan Country Club, 258 Andover Street, Georgetown, from 11 am to 2 pm.
