Mr. Peter Ortisi, age 64, of Danvers, formerly of Saugus, passed away suddenly on Sunday, January 19th.
Born in Medford and raised in Saugus, Peter was the son of Lillian (Ciulla) and the late Frank M. Ortisi of Saugus. Peter graduated from Saugus High School followed by Wentworth Institute of Technology where he earned a degree in electrical engineering. His work brought him to Hauppauge, New York where he worked for Parker Hannifin. There he was able to dive into his true passion, fishing. Peter was also a music enthusiast. In his younger years, he worked at Rocket Records. There he became immersed in the music he loved and made many connections to local up and coming bands.
In addition to his mother, Peter is survived by his sister Domenica Ortisi; brother-in-law, Robert Snyder; and two nephews, Robert and Chrisitan Snyder. He was predeceased by his sister, Lucy Snyder.
