Joseph Surrusco
Joseph Surrusco, 76, of Kings Point, Sun City Center, Fla., passed away Monday, November 3, 2014.
Born in Manhattan, N.Y., August 19, 1938, Joe dedicated his life to his family. He worked for 16 years at General Dynamics Shipyard in Quincy, Mass. Joe and his wife Jane lived in Lakeville, Mass., where he was a Lieutenant on the Lakeville Call Fire Department. All three of his children joined him and served as call firefighters.
Joe and Jane moved to Florida in 1985. Joe enjoyed many years of motorcycle riding, hunting, boating and fishing. Golf-cart riding replaced the motorcycles when Joe and Jane moved to Kings Point in 2001. Joe’s greatest joy was family gatherings with his children and granchildren and family.
He will be remembered most for his generous heart and many words of “wisdom” and as “Mr. Fix-it.” You would see Joe most Friday nights at San Remo’s Pizza with his family.
Joe leaves behind the love of his life, and wife of 53 years, Jane; children James Surrusco (Lora), Donna Surrusco Buttermore (Michael), and Roxanne Surrusco Hujar (Jerry) ; grandchildren Patrick Buttermore (Glenda), Trisha Buttermore, Dillon Hujar and Rachel Surrusco.
He will be greatly missed by brother Charles Surrusco and his wife Rosemarie of New Jersey, brother-in-law Bill Post of New York, and sister-in-law Evelyn Villa of Kings Point.
A memorial Mass will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 15, at Prince of Peace Catholic Church, 702 Valley Forge Blvd., Sun City Center.
