Michael J. Capozziello
Michael J. Capozziello, 58, of Palm Coast, FL, entered into eternal slumber on September 11th, 2018. He passed at his home peacefully, with his family by his side. Born in Bridgeport, CT on April 9, 1960 to the late Alfred and Carole ( Capasso) Capozziello, the youngest son Michael was the joyous heart and the ringleader of his siblings. His fearless energy, generous spirit, and brilliant comedic stylings earned him a special place in the hearts of his innumerable cousins, uncles and friends. He always had the greatest stories. Being a gifted communicator and entrepreneur, he went on to build a beautiful life for himself and his beloved wife, Christine Gross Capozziello. The greatest joys of Michael’s life were traveling the world, music, making people laugh, and helping those in need. He will be missed dearly by his surviving family members: Siblings ( Daniel Capozziello [ Brian Denning], Gregory Capozziello [ Francine Martin], Joanne Campbell- Smith [ Robert], Sandra Salvas [ Donald]), Nieces ( Danielle Capozziello, Kristen Rizzardi, Alexandra Campbell, Cassandra Comstock [ Mark]), Nephews ( Ryan & Adam Capozziello, Alfred Capozziello Jr., Derek Baxter), and StepChildren ( Courtney Crowell, Mackenzie, Shelby & Alexander Riofrio). He was predeceased by his brother, Alfred J. Capozziello. Michael’s impact in the lives of those close to him will never be forgotten and his spirit will surely live on forever.
