Edward Tomasulo Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by North Haven Funeral Home, Inc. on Oct. 1, 2025.
Edward (Ed) James Tomasulo, 70, of Cheshire passed away peacefully on Wednesday, September 10th, 2025, at his home with his family and friends by his side. He was the beloved husband of Anne M. Iezzi. Ed was born in Morristown, New Jersey on September 23rd, 1954, and was the son of the late James and Beatrice "Betty" Hald Tomasulo. He was a 1973 graduate of Staples High School in Westport. For much of his career, Ed worked in designing and selling fire and security system, retiring from Pye-Barker Fire & Safety, formerly Security Solutions, in Norwalk, CT. He loved his work and took great pride in providing the very best service to his client, always guided by integrity and dedication to excellence. Beyond his professional life, Ed embraced many passions. He was an avid tennis and golfer and a proud member of the Great Neck Country Club in Waterford, CT. He and Anne shared time together at their beach home in Waterford and were members of The Pleasure Beach Association. Ed was happy cooking and entertaining at the shore, where everyone was welcomed to join in the fun. He had a lifelong love of classic cars- collecting them, working on them and admiring their beauty. A true aficionado of classic rock music, there wasn't a trivia question he couldn't answer. Ed and Anne traveled far and wide to attend concerts, sharing unforgettable experiences with those that went along. Ed was a man of quiet strength, humility and grace. He never sought the spotlight but found joy in celebrating the accomplishments of others. Known for his impeccable style, warm heart and unwavering integrity, he embodied what is meant to be a "true gentleman". His friends and family will remember him as selfless, compassionate and endlessly devoted. Father of Jayson Tomasulo and his wife Catherine. Grandfather of Emmeline Tomasulo. Brother of Kim Brown and her husband John of Oxford, CT; he is also survived by many nieces and nephews, Brian Tomasulo of Monroe, CT, Jillian Tomasulo Brookes and her husband Steve Brookes of Chattanooga, TN. Stacey Viera and husband Fernando of Cornelious OR, Ashley Sintiera and husband Trevor, of Medford OR, Danielle Iezzi Lopez and Husband Dan of Quincey Ma, Marissa Iezzi of West Haven, CT, Courtney Iezzi of Humble TX and Greg Iezzi of Austin, TX, great nephew, Robert Fernando and Wesley Brookes, and great nieces, Olivia Carmella Lopez, Kathleen Brookes, Anderson Brookes and Elle Brookes, brother & Sister in law, Jim and Debbie Iezzi of Wallingford, CT and Sister in law, Linda Iezzi of Huble, TX. Ed also leaves behind his countless friends whose lives he touched with kindness, generosity and steadfast friendship. Predeceased by his brother Peter Tomasulo of Stratford, CT. Private Services have been entrusted to The Havens Family North Haven Funeral Home, 36 Washington Avenue North Haven, CT. A celebration of Ed's life is planned for a later date.
