Bruce Arrabito Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Anthony Funeral & Cremation Chapels - Brighton/Rochester Chapel on Aug. 12, 2025.
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Bruce Arrabito of Rochester, NY.

Bruce is predeceased by his brother, Jeffrey Arrabito. He is survived by his loving wife, Patricia Arrabito; and her sister, Linda Jo (Moe) Jacobs.

For 38 years, Bruce was an avid sailor, spending countless days navigating and enjoying the beauty of Lake Ontario. He began his career at Eastman Kodak, where he worked for many years, and later fulfilled a lifelong dream by owning and operating his own lawn care company after retirement.

A gentle and kind-hearted man, Bruce had a special love for animals, especially his cherished cats, Apollo and Gizmo, who were constant companions. Bruce will be remembered for his adventurous spirit, dedication to his work, and the kindness he extended to all who knew him.

In accordance with his wishes, services will be private. To share a memory or condolence with the family, visit anthonychapels.com.

So sorry to hear of Bruce's passing. He was a good friend of my brother, John. We all went to the same church. God bless you and give you peace.
