Leo Fitzpatrick Obituary

Leo C. Fitzpatrick, of Quincy, died at his home on September 4, 2021, surrounded by his family, after a brief illness. The beloved husband of 61 years to Kim Fitzpatrick. Cherished father of Mary Flynn and her husband Paul of Easton, Christine Fitzpatrick and her husband Phillip Aguyo of AZ, Kim Carvello and her husband John of Braintree and the late Ann Lowe and her late husband Thomas. Brother of John Fitzpatrick and his wife Betty of Rockland and the late Thomas Fitzpatrick and Betty Parker. Devoted Papa to Robert and Gregory Lowe, Ian Fitzpatrick, Rachael and Shannon Flynn, Kimberly and Phillip Aguyo and Brandon and Kyle Carvello. Leo grew up in South Boston, graduating from Gate of Heaven School. He enlisted into the United States Army and served his country for 4 years. Following his military service, Leo worked as a machinist for 25 years for the Reece Corporation. He then ran his own business in the laundry and dry cleaner industry. After closing his business, he began working in maintenance at the Lincoln School Apartments for the Corcoran Corporation for more than 15 years.
