Obituary

Joseph A. Bonavita, age 38, was called home on December 28, 2022. He was born in Springfield on August 20, 1984 to Renelle and Ralph Bonavita but spent most of his life in Chicopee. Joe was a graduate of Chicopee High School. He had many jobs but was most recently employed by Goodwill. He leaves behind his loving parents, Renelle and Ralph Bonavita of Chicopee; his sister Jessica Bonavita-Fisher and her husband Brent Fisher of Ludlow; two beloved nephews, Mason and Brady Fisher. He loved his Aunt Bea and cousins and will be missed by many relatives and friends. Joe will be remembered for his love of the outdoors, his easy wit, his passion for eclectic foods and books, his ability to make friends wherever life took him and his need to pet “all the dogs”, especially his namesake K9 companion, Vito. Rest in eternal peace Joe. A Celebration of Life will take place on Tuesday, January 3, 2023 from 4:00 - 6:00 PM at the Grise Funeral Home, 280 Springfield St, Chicopee. Burial will be private at a later date. In lieu of flowers, we would like to honor his love of animals by sending donations to the Thomas J O’Connor Animal Control and Adoption Center, 627 Cottage St, Springfield, MA 01104.
