Philip Rizzo Sr, 96, passed away peacefully at his home on December 9, 2020. Philip was especially proud of his service as a Veteran of WWII. He served in the Army's 159th Infantry 106th Division which received the EAME Theater Ribbon w/ 3 Bronze Stars. Philip was a barber at Nick's Barber Shop his whole life and well into his eighties still cut hair for Veteran's only. He wore his WWII hat proudly everyday in his later years.
