Joseph M. Cannizzaro Sr.

Beth & Family,
Beth,
Working with you for a couple of years and hearing all the nice stories u would share about your father. I know towards the end it got to be very hard on you and he went thru so much. He really was a fighter. May he now rest in peace

A few memories of my father I would like to share with others.

The trips during the summer to the beach that begin at 5am with Dad packing the car to be sure not just to fit all our “stuff” but his 5 children and an english carriage on the roof.

The South Boston parades where Dad dressed up in all green trying so hard to be Irish for just one day.

The pride in his eyes taking us back to college each September once he packed and repacked our worldly possessions a million...

Michele and family

Your dad was great and his memory will live on in so many people. Find comfort with each other. Be proud of who he was and know he was loved by all who knew him.
Love you guys.
Sandy

Susan, Michelle, Joe Jr, Rosetta and Beth. My deepest condolences and prayers are with you on the loss of a great husband, Dad, Grandfather and friend. I just found out about his passing yesterday and was shocked and saddened as I just asked Susan (at yet another wake) last week about how Joe was doing. Joe was a special guy. I never once heard him say anything bad about anyone. I fondly remember spending alot of great times with all of you on Prospect St, jogging with Joe down on Chelsea St...

Susan and Family,

Please accept our deepest condolences on the loss of Joe. He was a terrific guy whose family was his proudest creation. Each of you has displayed great courage in accepting all that this life has burdened you with, and I am certain that that same courage will help you to endure this most recent pain.

Susan, you have every right to be proud to say that Joe was your husband, and Michele, Rosetta, Beth, and Joe, you have every right to be proud to say that Joe...

Dear Cannizzaro Family. It so much easier for me to write than to actually talk. I just want to say I'm so sorry for your loss. Your family has been through so much, and yet you keep on going. You are all so strong. I feel so lucky to have know Dad. I always sort of thought of him as a Dad to me. He was my Southie buddy. He was thoughtful and kind, and he taught me so much about what makes a truly good person. I'm so thankful to him, and to your family for always making me feel like...

I am so sorry for your loss, words at this time just don't seem enough, but know you and yours are in my thoughts and prayers. I remember Joe from when I used to pick up Chet from work, and from the parties that Brockway used to have. Chet passed recently too, and I would bet that Joe and Chet are catching up on old times.

Rosetta and family,

Rosetta, I am so sorry for the loss of your dad. Any time I saw him he seemed to me a very happy and proud father. May you find comfort in your family and friends at this time. We (the large CSC family) are thinking of you. God bless.

To the Cannizzaro family,

My heart goes out to all of you. I remember your dad being down St. Catherine's, and he always had a smile. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers.
