Visit the Buonfiglio Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.

Frederick Walter Pratt Sr. was born in Boston, MA, on April 25, 1934, and lived in Revere, MA for his long 90-year life. A loving father, husband, grandfather, and uncle; he dedicated his life to taking care of his family. He met his wife Elinor when he was 19 years old and spent 70 amazing years with the love of his life. He and Elinor loved to travel, going on countless cruises, trips to Europe, the Caribbean and beyond. Between their travels, they enjoyed hosting friends and family at their house on Oakwood Ave for pool and dinner parties.

Fred retired from his career as an accountant at Star Sales in 2000 and moved to their condo with amazing views of Revere Beach in 2014. Fred always put his family first and bought Elinor all the fur coats and jewelry she wanted, even if they didn’t have any space for them! He always ate her cooking, even though he was a picky eater.

He and Elinor always dreamed of living on the beach, and they got to spend their final decade enjoying the view. In late retirement, he lived out his days reading the newspaper, talking on the phone to loved ones, and enjoying his nightly bud light.

Frederick was predeceased by his wife Elinor, his eldest son Frederick Pratt, Jr, his youngest son Steven Pratt, and grandson Jeffrey Pratt. Fred is survived by his other grandson Brian Pratt, daughter in law Donna, nieces, nephews, and lifelong friends.

A memorial Service will be held on Saturday April 5, 2025, at 11:00AM in the chapel at Woodlawn Cemetery in Everett, MA
