Donald “Don” Rizzi died unexpectedly at his home on Oct 21, 2020.
Don attended Oliver Wolcott Technical School in Torrington, Ct and continued to tinker with small engines his entire life.
His favorite place on this earth was the “Garage”. His man cave and the social center of his home.
His favorite thing to do was climb on his tractor with a Busch Beer and mow his yard. So much so that we jokingly told people that he had Tractor Disorder.
Don had the nick name of Dr. Evil at Howmet, his place of employment for over 30 years. Don earned this name because he loved to bust his friends and get them laughing.
In lieu of flowers or donations Don would want you to pay it forward to someone in need.
Respecting Don’s wish there will be no services or memorials.
