Peter DiGiulio

It is with the deepest sadness that we announce the sudden, yet peaceful passing of Peter Vincent DiGiulio, of Revere, Massachusetts, who departed on December 21, 2024, at the age of 72. Pete was a graduate of Dom Savio High School (‘69), and Boston College (‘73). An elementary school teacher and coach in the city of Revere for 43 years, Mr. D made an immense impact on everyone’s life that he touched during his time as an educator. He couldn’t go anywhere in the city without stopping to have a conversation with a former student, colleague, or friend. The difference between a “great” and a “legend” is the ability to inspire generations to come. Pete was a legend. His love, kindness, and extreme generosity will leave a long-lasting impression. He dedicated his life to the lights of it, his children, Benjamin Peter and Emily Alice, whom he loved and supported with every ounce of his being. Peter is also survived by his ex-wife, Debra DiGiulio; his sister, Susan (DiGiulio) Cronin; his brother, Vincent DiGiulio; his favorite daughter-in-law Kendyl (Klein) DiGiulio; and his nieces and nephew, Amy (Davis) and Erin (Tucker) Cronin, Olivia DiGiulio, Grace Magno, Julie (Peczka) Thurston, Jennifer (Peczka) McFarland, and Zach Peczka. He was preceded in death by his parents, Peter N. DiGiulio and Gloria Maddalena. Visitation will be held Sunday, December 29, 2024, from 10 a.m.-12:00 p.m., followed by a Prayer Service at noon, at the Buonfiglio’s Funeral Home in Revere, MA.
