James DeSisto

James “Jim” Michael DeSisto, born July 7th, 1943, of Revere, Massachusetts passed away peacefully with loved ones at his side on January 4th, 2025, at the age of 81. James, lovingly known as “Jim”, or “Jay” is predeceased by his parents Albert DeSisto and Josephine (Brunaccini), brothers Joseph and Robert DeSisto, sisters Marie Morris and Bernice DeSisto, and Nephew John Paul Morris. He is survived by his brother Paul DeSisto and husband Scott of Lynn, as well as many nieces, nephews and friends. James served his country in the Air Force during the Vietnam War. Later in life he bartended where he shared his love for making people laugh, always having a perfectly delivered joke to tell. His humor will be greatly missed.
