Patrick W. "Lozzy" Nesci's Obituary
Patrick W. "Lozzy" Nesci, 74, passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his loving family on June 3, 2022. Lozzy spent his life focusing on his two loves: his family, and C. Nesci Produce, a fifty-year-old business he started out of his car and grew into one of the largest produce businesses in the area. He was a devoted and loyal father, husband, brother, grandfather, father-in-law, uncle and friend to countless people. An avid sports fan, Lozzy coached all of his children. He never missed a family event, or an opportunity to help someone, without ever expecting anything in return. He loved to spoil others with his generosity, but never much cared for material things himself. Anyone who knew him had a story to tell--Lozzy was the most lovable of characters.
He was predeceased by his parents, llario and Concetta (Santaro) Nesci; sisters, Eleanor Warner, Annie Murty, Lucille Hall, Theresa Childs and Carmella Nesci; brothers, Jim, Larry and Tony.
Lozzy is survived by his high school sweetheart and wife of fifty-one years, Carol (Riccelli) Nesci; daughter, Andrea Rapasadi and her husband Bob; daughter, Alicia Wazen and her husband Samer; son, Patrick J. Nesci and his wife Maeve; grandchildren, Ava, Giada, Bobby and Sloane; brothers, Joseph, Mike and Richard; brother-in-law, Joe Riccelli; sister-in-law, Annette Nesci, along with several nieces and nephews.
Special thanks to all the doctors and nurses that took care of Patrick.
