Ernest A. Fiore, age 91, of Revere, Massachusetts, passed away peacefully on October 19, 2025.
Born on December 1, 1933, in Revere, Ernest was predeceased by his parents, Michael Sr. and Antonetta (Galeota) Fiore, and his siblings Frank, Michael Jr., Domenic, and John. He is survived by his beloved sister, Dolly Serino.
Fondly known as Ernie, he was a proud son of Revere, Massachusetts, where he was a lifelong resident. Family was the cornerstone of Ernie’s life. He leaves behind his devoted wife, Patricia (Buonfiglio) Fiore; his loving daughters, Joan Fiore-Papadopoulos and her husband Dimitri Papadopoulos, Cathy Folts and her husband DeFred G. Folts III; and his cherished grandson, Alex Folts. He is also survived by many loving nieces, nephews, and extended family.
Ernie will be remembered for his sense of humor, his love for home, and his unwavering commitment to those he held dear. After graduating from Revere High School, he entered the military at the time of the Korean War. A proud veteran, Ernie served his country in the United States Army Air Forces component of the US Army. During his time in the military, he was stationed in Italy and Germany, and he talked about these adventures often.
After his time in the service, Ernie worked as Grocery Manager at the former United Supermarket and Johnnie’s Foodmaster. During his career in the supermarket industry, he was no stranger to hard work. He loved his job and the people with whom he interacted. His solid work ethic reflected his steady and reliable character.
Ernie embraced life with enthusiasm—playing softball at Hill Park, jogging along Revere Beach, and tending to his famous tomatoes. He was an avid sports fan and supported all the Boston teams, attending games in his younger days and then watching them at home later in life.
Together with Patricia, he built their home on Ridge Road, a true labor of love that became a source of great pride and joy. That home, like his life, was filled with laughter and warmth. Ernie was forever grateful for his wife Trish, who cared for him with patience and grace in his later years.
Ernest Fiore’s passing leaves a void, but his spirit lives on in our memories. Family and friends are invited to share memories and photos on his memorial page in celebration of his life.
A graveside service will be held at Woodlawn Cemetery in Everett, MA, on Friday, October 24, 2025, at 11:00 AM.
