Kenneth Buzzo Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Palm Royale Funeral Home & Cemetery on Feb. 20, 2026.
Kenneth William Buzzo, lovingly known as "Uncle Kenny," passed away on February 16, 2026, in Tampa, Florida, after a courageous battle with lung cancer. He was 59 years old.

Born on November 1, 1966, in Brooklyn, New York, Kenny carried his New York roots with him throughout his life. He was a proud son, brother, uncle, and friend whose presence meant more than words can express to those who loved him.

Kenny is now reunited with his beloved parents, Richard and Joan Buzzo, and his brothers, Richard, Dennis, Kevin, and Keith, who preceded him in death.

He leaves behind his loving sisters-in-law, Francine and Madeline Buzzo, and his cherished nieces and nephews: Danielle, Denise, Dennis, William, Richard, Christopher, and Joseph. To them, he was more than an uncle - he was a steady presence, a source of support, and someone who cared deeply about his family.

Uncle Kenny will be remembered for his strength, especially throughout his illness, and for the love he gave so freely. His resilience, loyalty, and devotion to family defined his life. Though his passing leaves a profound void, his memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
