George A. Caruso Jr

November 8, 1934 — December 3, 2023

Manchester

George A. Caruso Jr., 89, of Manchester, passed away peacefully in his sleep on December 3, 2023. He was the loving husband of Lorraine Caruso  with whom he shared 66 years of marriage.

George was born in Westfield, MA on November 8, 1934 to the late George Caruso Sr. and Catherine R. Bongiorni where he lived until moving to Waltham, MA. He met the love of his life, Lorraine, while roller skating at the Wallex and together they settled down to raise a family.

He became blind in his mid-life, George was very funny, full of life and energy.  He was the first to greet you with a story, a joke and made everyone comfortable with his amazing ability to find humor in every situation.  

Along with his wife Lorraine, he is survived by his three children, George Caruso III (m. Donna W. Caruso), Joseph Caruso (m. Loren E. Caruso) and Marianne Prescott (m. Steve Prescott); eight grandchildren Ryan Crooker, Kristina Ott (m. Rusty Ott), Cheryllynn Walker (m. Michael Walker), Alicia Collier (m. Anthony Decker), Katrina Kiro (m. Keven Kiro), Wendy Lee, Robin Heneghan (m. Patrick Heneghan), and David A. L. Herring (m. Kalila Herring); and eleven great grandchildren Avery Decker, Abriella Decker, Alina Decker, Emma Walker, Ethan Walker, Kobe Kiro, Julia Walter, James Walter, Keira Heneghan, Blake Heneghan, Davy Herring.

May he rest in peace, surrounded by the love felt for him by all of the lives he touched here on earth.
