Fishing, hiking, swimming in the Swift River, canoeing down the Saco River, and pretty much any other outdoor activity there was. Then came the grandchildren. Papa Nick loved spending time with his grandchildren. The Stone Zoo and Friendly’s were popular spots, as, long as you got there early so you didn’t have to wait. Nick loved to fi sh and would go anytime he could. He loved to eat, 7am, 12pm and 5pm like clockwork. Early to bed and early to rise to get the most out of the day. And in the evening, he enjoyed watching Abbott and Costello, MASH, and old westerns to name a few. He was a regular at Stop and Shop, arriving fi rst thing in the morning to beat the crowd, and was also a regular at the florist. Birthdays, holidays and sometimes just because, there were fl owers, especially red roses brought home to his Olga. Nick was a strong and proud man who overcame many obstacles, a near fatal fall, cancer and heart failure. He fought with all his might to the very end until his body fi nally gave out and he found peace. He will be fondly remembered and greatly missed by all who knew him. Nick leaves his loving wife of 69 years Olga (Fonzi) and his four children Nicolas “Rusty” Anzuoni and his wife Nina of Colrain, MA, Steven Anzuoni and his wife Tracy of Plymouth, MA and Robert Anzuoni of Aiken, SC and his daughter Gina Spadafora and her husband Anthony of Malden.
