Cynthia Recchia

Cynthia Recchia, age 83, of Revere, passed away peacefullt at home on November 16, 2023. She was a beloved mother, grandmother, and friend, and will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Born in Boston, she was the daughter of Antoinette and Saverio Paventi. Cynthia graduated from Malden High School and then went on to have a successful career as an insurance agent, working alongside her father at the family insurance company, Claremont Insurance Company. It was at this company that she met her husband, Alphonse “Fonzo”, who came in as a customer. Their love story began with a date and eventually led to 53 years of marriage. They ran the agency up until 2008, when their daughters, Cynthia and Julia took over. They continue to run the agency to this day.

In her free time, Cynthia enjoyed being a member of the Red Hats Society. She took great pride in her home and loved the holidays, especially baking and cooking for her family.

Cynthia is survived by her children, Cynthia and husband Jeffrey Graff of Lynnfield, MA, and Julia and husband Nicholas Bisconti of Lynnfield, MA. She also leaves behind her grandchildren, Zachary Bisconti, Nicholas Bisconti, and Lauren Graff. Cynthia was preceded in death by her husband, Alfonse, her father, Saverio Paventi, her mother, Antoinette Paventi (Giovanni), and her brother, Victor Paventi.
