Luigi Nunzio Rosatone, who lived in Everett for many years, died on Tuesday, October 6, 2026. He was 76.
He was born in L’Aquila, in the mountains of Abruzzo, Italy, to Antonio and Maria (Giovannucci) Rosatone. In the United States he became a machinist in the sheet metal trade and a member of Local 17, known on the job for the care he put into the work.
Away from the shop he cooked and he gardened, and the point of both was to share. He liked a full table and was happiest bringing people together over what he had grown and made.
His wife, Linda (Morrison) Rosatone, and his daughter Danielle died before him. He leaves his daughter Maria Rosatone, his son Anthony Rosatone, his granddaughter Daniella Parlante, and his sister Agata and her husband Antimo Pasquale in Italy.
A visitation was held Tuesday, October 13 at the J.F. Ward Funeral Home, 772 Broadway, Everett.
