Buzz died the same way he lived, with exuberance and plenty of life. He enjoyed being the proprietary owner of the Natick Shell Service Station. For the last several years of his life he worked as a fine craftsman and contractor,working up until the day of his passing. He relished maintaining his flower and vegetable gardens in which he won multiple awards for the most outstanding agriculture display.
He will be forever remembered through his loving family. He leaves his wife Ann Olim Bruni and her three children and five grandchildren, two brothers, Michael and wife Linda of Northboro, MA and their son Michael, Robert and wife Debbie of Ocala, FL and their children Bobby, Gioia, Jason, Crissy and Jay, his children Camilla Carter and husband Daryl of Milford, MA, Jeffrey and wife Sharon Vogt of Doylestown, PA, Robin Tarani and husband Robert of Rutland, MA and Mark and wife Mary of Milford, MA.

Dear Ann, and family of Buzz,
It was shocking to read of Buzz's death. I wish all of you love, strength, and binding together to get through this very sad time. Buzz was a sweet guy who never had conflicts with others. He lived his life and seemed to enjoy his family so much. He was my neighbor for several years! I pray that he's resting in peace and that he didn't suffer too badly. In love and sympathy , Donna

To my Mom and all of Buzz's family. I think of you everyday. I think of Buzz everyday. It seems so surreal that Buzz is not here anymore. Its incredible how quickly our lives go by. I think everyone who new Buzz would agree that he was a sweetheart of a man with a huge heart and behind the occasional gruff facade was an extremely kind person. He always treated me with respect. Buzz was the go to guy when you needed any advice on everything to do with guy stuff. He had the most admirable work ethic and organizational skills of anyone I have ever known. He was amazingly dedicated and committed to you Mom. He loved you. I also know how deeply he loved all of his children and family. Buzz mentored my nephews and I believe his knowledge and life by example will have a lifelong effect on them especially his side kick Max. I have known Buzz most of my life. When you lose someone life goes on but with a huge hole, things will always be different. I now realize with a pit in my stomach and heavy heart that I did love Buzz. Ill miss him.
To Mark, Jeff, Cami and Robin I cannot be there to celebrate your Dads life on Jan 6th but my thoughts will be with you.
Wishing everyone who was part of his life experiencing his loss- Love and Peace.
