HONORING ROCCO CHIAVUZZO OF BAYVILLE, NEW JERSEY FOLLOWING HIS PASSING

                                 ______

                            of new hampshire

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, May 23, 2016

  Mr. GUINTA. Mr. Speaker, I would like to extend my sincerest 
condolences and sympathy to the family of Rocco Chiavuzzo of Bayville, 
New Jersey. Rocco was a dear member of my extended family in New Jersey 
and a true patriot, who loved the United States and all the 
opportunities it provided to both him and his family over the years.
   Originally from Italy, Rocco moved to America following his required 
military service with the Italian government to join the love of his 
life, his wife of more than fifty years, Michelina. After immigrating 
to the U.S., Rocco found a suitable home and earned

enough money to bring his parents and four siblings to America.
   Before retiring to the beach in Bayville, Rocco worked as a butcher 
in Elizabeth, New Jersey and raised his two children with Michelina, 
Vito and Maria. He is survived by his wife, two children and two 
grandchildren, Michelle and Julian, who I know will think back on their 
time with Rocco and cherish the wonderful memories they created 
together.
   Rocco will always be remembered as a loving and caring man, whose 
greatest accomplishment was his family and the joys they shared 
together. To his immediate and extended family, especially to 
Michelina, Vito, Maria, Michelle and Julian, as well as Rocco's 
siblings Sal, Carmine, Renato, Ugo and Geraldina, I offer my sincerest 
condolences for your loss.
   On behalf of Rocco's entire family, I am proud to share his story 
with my colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives and to pay 
tribute to the life of such a great man.
