Cosmo Graziuso, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle, passed away peacefully on March 15, 2024. Born in the picturesque town of Castel San Lorenzo near Salerno in southern Italy, Cosmo's journey began on November 25, 1947. A devoted family man, Cosmo is survived by his loving wife of 51 years, Teresa Graziuso (nee Gallo), and his two sons, Luigi and Luca, along with their spouses, Marife and Claudia. His legacy continues through his grandchildren, Lexi and her husband Walker, and their children Sadie and Wesley; Chloe; and Maria Chiara. He also leaves behind his brother Antonio Graziuso, his nieces Valentina and Ilaria, and his nephew George. Cosmo's passion for life was evident in his love for his favorite soccer team, Napoli, and sports in general. He proudly served in the Italian Army for 20 years, a testament to his dedication and service. In his leisure, he found joy in gardening, creating a little piece of Eden wherever he went, and his musical tastes ranged from the timeless melodies of The Beatles to the classic tunes of Italian music.
Cosmo's warmth, generosity and vibrant spirit touched all you knew him. He will be deeply missed but fondly remembered for the love he shared and the lives he enriched.
