My condolence to all of John’s family. All of you are in my prayers. He was truly a great man…RIP, John 🙏
My grandfather was one of a kind. A hardworking, loving man who was always kind. My fondest memories as a child are of my time spent with my grandparents. From swimming in the pool, camping, riding horses, learning to play gin rummy, dance parties around the butcher block in the kitchen, making ham pie to many many sleep overs, star gazing, watching thunderstorms, taking birthday rides in the old classic car, watching jeopardy or the UCONN girls. The list goes on and on. I’ve learned so much from my grandparents and will cherish all those memories. I have been so lucky to be his granddaughter and will miss him dearly, even the cheek pinches that left your face red, as all 16 of us grandchildren know! He is in peace now and with my grandmother. Love you always Naun. XOXOXO
My deepest condolences. John was a kind loving man who always made me feel like family when in his company. A huge loss.
My deepest sympathy to the entire Bozzuto Family. John will be sadly missed by many. A good & dear friend, father & grandfather to all. The Bozzuto Family are the most loving & caring people. May you find Peace & Comfort during this difficult time. John will now be with his loving wife Maureen. I will never forget all the wonderful memories. May you rest in peace my two very good friends. Love You!
Condolence to the Family-RIP_JOHN

I wish to extend my deepest and heartfelt condolences to the entire Bozzuto family. I grew up next door to this great family and it was great growing up with them all. I have fond memories of Mr. Bozzuto. I remember that smile and he sometimes smelled like those sweet cigars he used to like to smoke. He was a very devoted family man and a very hard worker…all traits he passed down to his children. He will be missed but it is comforting to know he is reunited with Mrs. B., the love of his life. Love and hugs to everyone. May the memories you shared sustain you as you grieve.
My deepest condolences. We are thinking of everyone during this time.
