ENOSBURGH, VT - John A. Tony Navaroli, age 76, passed away peacefully at his home on Thursday, November 13, 2008.
\tHe was preceded in death by his beloved wife of 50 years, Lorraine E. (Brunelli) Navaroli, who passed away February 15, 2006, at the couples home.
Tony was born November 16, 1931 in Clinton, MA, the son of the late Zachary & Alina (Villa) Navaroli.

He earned numerous professional awards during a distinguished career in the field of public health before retiring to Vermont in 1988.
Tony greatly enjoyed country walks with Lorraine before her passing, working in his garden, tending his home and land, woodworking, talking to his ham radio friends and spending time with his grandchildren every summer.
He is survived by his son, Randy Navaroli of Sheldon, VT; his grandchildren, Ryan Navaroli of Athens, OH; Lauren Navaroli of El Paso, TX, and Zachary Navaroli of Sheldon, VT; a sister and her husband, Stella & Domenic Tresaloni of Leominster, MA; 3 sisters-in-law and their husbands, Joan & Francis Guzzardi of Waterbury, CT, Patricia & James Walsh of Oakville, CT, and Gloria Brunelli of Oakville, CT, the wife of his late brother-in-law Louis Brunelli; a brother-in-law, John Brunelli Jr., of Oakville, CT; several nieces and nephews; and his dog Rudy.
