THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, March 22, 2024 Page 21 OBITUARIES Mouldi Sfaxi Of Malden. Passed away peacefully on Sunday March 17, 2024. He was 75 years of age. Mouldi (or as we always called him Dean or Deano), came to this country in the early 70’s after meeting the love of his life in Germany (where he worked for the Sheraton hotel) and moved to Boston and settled in Malden where his wife Priscilla, his daughter Najette and dog Lucky enjoyed many fun and loving memories in their home. Dean enjoyed soccer, James Brown & lamb tip dinners every chance he could get. He also enjoyed the company of his family & neighbors and loved when his friends visited him. He was a regular at a few of the local convenient stores in Maplewood Square. Since his wife Priscilla passed, he was very active in going out and staying busy walking around Malden (he walked everywhere) and frequenting his local stores (where he was LOVED and always well received.) You literally saw the owners faces light up when they saw him, so you know he was a positive presence in their life. Mouldi is the beloved husband of Priscilla (Wennerberg) Sfaxi. He is the devoted father of Najette Parker and her husband Justin Parker. Loving brother of Mohamed Sfaxi and Salouha Sfaxi. Family and friends were invited to gather and share memories with the family on Thursday March 21, 2024 in the Barile Family Funeral Home 482 Main St. (RT28) Stoneham from 10 am to 12 pm followed by a Funeral Service Celebrating Mouldi's Eternal Life at 12.
