He was married to Camille DeAngelis for 60 years, having met seven years before that. They were married at St. Anthony’s in Everett. Chuck was the son of Stella and Charles DiPerri, and son-inlaw of Margaret and John DeAngelis. He leaves his daughter, Christine and son-in-law John Horras, his son Brian, and two granddaughters, Amelia and Lauren. He leaves a brother, Rick and sister-in-law Janice.

He served in the Army Reserve for 6 years. He was a Resident Engineer at Logan Airport for Massport and received an award for outstanding achievement for his work. Chuck, an Everett Councilman for 14 years, served as President in 1996 and 2000. One of his many accomplishments was to reinstate the Hometown Heroes Program with Chief Mazzie to bring back the annual Police Memorial program. He sponsored much legislation that he thought was helpful to Everett’s citizens. He went on to become a much-respected Alderman. Many would comment that he was the voice of reason in Everett Politics. His contributions to Everett politics are too numerous to mention. Quiet and serious but he got the job done. In earlier years, he enjoyed coaching Everett Little League, Babe Ruth, and Youth Hockey. He always enjoyed the simple things -working around the yard with Christine and John and going to the lake in NH to see Brian, Amelia and Lauren. He enjoyed watching the cooking shows and loved to cook. He made some really fancy meals. With Chuck, it was always family fi rst and he will always be in our hearts. The family wishes to thank the doctors, nurses and staff at MGH, including those at the Yawkey Building, and Everett 911 for their support during the last two years. Also, those family members and friends who were so supportive. Chuck, you will always be in our hearts.

Named after the 35th President, his parents chose the Gaelic version of John—Sean—for his name, refl ecting their Irish heritage. Sean was a retired employee of the US Postal Service who also enjoyed volunteering at all the MD Telethons as well as the City elections earning him the affectionate title of the “backup Mayor of Everett.” His easygoing charm and genuine connections with those around him made him a beloved fi gure in his community. Recently, Sean found joy in settling into his favorite apartment, complete with cherished amenities like laundry service and cleaning, which brought him a sense of comfort and independence. Sean was the son of Isabella and Walter Keefe of Everett, MA, both deceased.
