In Loving Memory of Paula Mizzoni

Paula Mizzoni, 67, of Boston’s North End, passed away peacefully on March 15th, surrounded by her family at AdviniaCare rehabilitation in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Despite her battle with uterine cancer, which she kept largely to herself, Paula remained more concerned for others than for her own pain. Her strength and resilience left a lasting impression on the nurses and patients at the facility.

Born to the late Joseph and Marie (Fiorentino) Mizzoni and the granddaughter of the late Joseph and Angelina (Galeno) Fiorentino, Paula was deeply rooted in her North End community. She dedicated many years of her life to her family’s bakery, Mike’s Pastry, where her hard work and commitment were evident every day.

Paula is survived by her daughters, Danielle Mizzoni of Lynnfield, and Stephanie and Jessica Firicano of Rhode Island. She is also mourned by her sisters, Angela Mizzoni of Medford, and Maria (Mizzoni), along with her brother-in-law David Harrison of Whitman. A loving grandmother, she cherished her nine grandchildren and leaves behind many aunts, uncles, nieces,nephews, cousins, and friends who will miss her dearly.

Known for her selflessness, Paula consistently prioritized the needs of others, lovingly caring for her great-grandparents, parents, and Uncle Mike until their passing. Her loving nature, thoughtfulness, and compassion made her a beacon of light in the lives of those around her.

A funeral mass will be held at St. Leonard’s Church, 320 Hanover St, North End, Boston, on Monday, April 13, 2026, at 11:00 AM. Family and friends are cordially invited to celebrate her life. Paula’s ashes will later be interred with her parents at Oak Grove Cemetery in Medford.

Paula's legacy of love and kindness will undoubtedly remain in the hearts of many.
