Charles "Tom" Accuosti, 84, of Southbury, CT, peacefully departed this life on November 1, 2023. He was the husband of Margaret "Peggy" (Manzolli) Accuosti for 66 years, and father to both Thomas and Sandra.
Born to the late Charles and Rose (Bocchicchio) Accuosti, Tom grew up in Waterbury, CT and attended Leavenworth High School, graduating in 1957. He then joined the United States Navy aboard the USS Beatty, faithfully serving from 1957 to 1959. After his honorable discharge from the Navy, Tom returned home to CT and founded his own manufacturing business, Precision Methods. He also had a passion for construction as a "hobby" and spent his life building his homes and lending a helping hand whenever anything needed to be fixed or built.
Tom found joy in traveling and spending time with his family, as he was a resident of both CT and FL. For 30 years, Tom also organized Navy reunions, which took them to various parts of the country to celebrate his unwavering bond with his comrades and dear friends.
Tom is survived by his wife, Margaret "Peggy" (Manzolli) Accuosti; children, Thomas Accuosti (and wife Linda) and Sandra Accuosti Thigpen (and husband Rick); grandchildren, Jennifer Rose Accuosti and Thomas O'Shea (and wife Darcy); great-grandchildren, Davin and Tegan O'Shea; and many friends. He is predeceased by his parents, alongside his brother, William "Bill" Accuosti.
Family and friends are invited to attend a Visitation from 10 to 11 AM on Saturday, November 11, 2023 at Carpino Funeral Home, 750 Main Street South in Southbury, with a Memorial Service directly following at 11am along with full Military Honors.
