Nick Boldi Obituary
Age 85, of Massillon passed away on May 21, 2020, of COVID-19. He was born in Canton on December 21, 1934, to the late Nick and Appaline Boldi. Nick worked for Contemporary Builders in sales and remodeling. He also was a song writer, record producer and managing singing talents from 1950 to 2015. In his later years, Nick lived in Amherst Meadows where he brought joy to the residence and staff. Nick's hobbies were free flight airplanes, growing the tallest tomatoes and collecting crazy socks. He always said his three girls were his greatest accomplishment.
Nick is preceded in death by his parents; wife, Ruth;, brother, John Stephen; and sisters, Val Vona and Babe Lazar. He is survived by his daughters, Terri (Todd) Lentz, Tammi Yoho, and Toni Weidman; grandchildren, Todd, Paul (Desiree), Sean (Jen), and Tessa (Vance); great-grandchildren, Brooklyn and Sophia; and many life-long family and friends. A special thanks to Amherst Meadows for their outstanding love and care that was given to Nick.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Nick's memory to the Stark County Humane Society. Messages of sympathy and support may be made at www.paquelet.com

So sad to hear of Mr. Boldi's passing. I met Nick when I was 5 years old. We lived in the apartments next door. He would fly his hobby airplanes in the farm fields adjacent to our neighborhoods. He allowed us kids to chase the planes gliding back to earth and bring them back to him. He gave us rides on his lawn tractor and let us sit in on the mini concert/recording sessions of 'Johnny' in their basement. He and his wife were very hospitable. We had great childhoods living in that neighborhood. I think every elementary boy had a crush on his teenage girls. LOL. Life was good back then in a world filled with adventure and imagination. Great memories of enjoying every season outdoors. Peace to his family, and God bless through Jesus.
