Rocco "Rocky" Capozza, 83, passed away on September 19, 2025, at his home in Pinellas Park, Florida.

A graduate of Beaver Falls High School, class of '59, he enlisted in the United States Army and was part of the US Army chemical training school. He earned a Bachelor of Science Degree at Empire State College in business management and fire administration.

He was proudly employed with the City of Beaver Falls for twenty-one years as a Firefighter, Fire Engineer, Fire Inspector and as Fire Chief for the last nine years of his service. When he retired in 1991, he moved to Florida where he and his family resided for the past thirty-four years.

Born on September 24, 1941, in Beaver Falls, PA he was pre-deceased by his parents Rocco F Capozza and Leona Pisano Capozza.

He is survived by his loving wife of 45 years, Marian Chiodo Capozza and sons; Patrick Capozza, Pinellas Park, FL and Michael Nalli (Sharon) Beaver County, PA; his sisters, Madeline Bologna and Carol Yancich; nieces, Leslie, Julie, Stephanie; great-nieces, Alexa, Jessica, Mia, and great-nephews, Connor, Dominic, and Rocco.

Rocco was a kind, generous, and thoughtful man, who loved his family and his friends deeply. Always the quick wit, whenever he completed any large task, his favorite saying was, "done, D-U-N!". He will forever be in our hearts; and we are so grateful he was in our lives.

At the request of the family, there will be no viewing. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be sent to the Beaver Falls Fire Department, 715 15 th Street, Beaver Falls, PA 15010 or to St. Jude’s Hospital, 262 Danny Thomas Place, Memphis, TN 38105.

I know we are states away, but if there is anything we can do please reach out to Bridgette. We love you Patrick.
