Thomas F. Belloli, Sr. of Bridgewater passed away after a period of failing health on Wednesday, December 10th, 2025. He was 70 years old.
Originally born in Framingham, Tom was a life-long resident of Bridgewater. He graduated from Bridgewater-Raynham High School in 1973. Following graduation, Tom began working at his father's construction company, A. Belloli & Sons. He inherited the family business and worked in construction his entire career. Tom retired from the business in 2020.
Tom made friends with Debra Gazerro, a waitress at a local donut shop in town. They began dating shortly after and later married in 1982. Together they settled down in Bridgewater where they raised their three sons.
When the kids were young, Tom loved coaching their sports teams. He adored animals of all kinds, and loved many dogs over the years. Tom had an affinity for watching the weather reports on television and could listen to WBZ AM radio for hours.
Anyone who knew Tom could attest that he was an all-around nice guy. He was good natured, would do anything for anyone, and often put the needs of others before his own. He will be sorely missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
Tom is predeceased by his parents, Anthony and Catherine (Cronin) Belloli, and his mother-in-law Rosemary Gazerro.
He is survived by his loving wife, Debra Belloli (Gazerro) of Bridgewater. Cherished father of Robert Keefe of Bridgewater, Thomas Belloli, Jr. of Whitman, and Joseph Belloli and his wife Danielle of Bridgewater. Adored grandfather of Riley, Gemma, Anthony, and Isla Belloli. Caring brother of Carol Auglis of Bridgewater, Anthony Belloli of Townsend, David Belloli of Indiana, and Donna Belloli of New Hampshire.
