Henry Anthony Ferrari passed away from natural causes on April 9, 2023,

surrounded by his loving family and devoted caregivers. He was known to family,

friends, and business colleagues as a warm and generous man who loved being

with people and approached life until the end with a sense of humor.

Henry was born in Quincy on February 8, 1929 to the late Enrico and Leontina

(Dellalucca) Ferrari. He grew up on Whiting Street in Plymouth with his brothers

Paul and David and attended the Plymouth public schools. When he was old

enough to work, he was employed at the Cordage Company and also as a delivery

driver for a Pepsi bottling company in town. He was vice president of the

Plymouth High School class of 1946 and a member of the football team. He

continued to play football in college, as well as semi-pro as a lineman for the

Plymouth Rockets.

Henry graduated from Brown University with a bachelor's degree in 1950.

Throughout his college years he dated his future wife, Joan Rossi from Kingston.

They were married at St. Peter's church on July 4, 1951. After college, he enlisted

in the Marines and was stationed at Camp Pendleton in California. He was

deployed to Korea as a captain in the first Marine tactical division. He was proud

of his service as a Marine and later in life would often wear his Korean War

Veteran cap.

When Henry returned from Korea he began working at his father's insurance

agency, Cape Insurance, which he eventually took over. He also owned Cape

Travel and had many other business ventures in town. He was a member of the

Lions Club, the Cabot Club, the Plymouth Yacht Club, and served on several

Plymouth town committees. He and Joan traveled extensively with the Professional

Insurance Agents Association, as well as many trips to San Cristoforo, Italy to visit

his father's relatives. With his family, he enjoyed boat outings, ski trips to New

Hampshire, and large dinners which he loved to prepare. Upon retirement he and

Joan lived at White Cliffs, where he golfed with the Tuesday Tulips, and spent

winters at their condo in Juno Beach, Florida. He was an active volunteer at both

Jordan Hospital and Jupiter Hospital and served as a guardian ad litum in West

Palm Beach.

Henry is survived by his wife Joan (Rossi), his daughter Susan Dwyer and her

husband John, his daughter Lisa Sampson, his daughter Carla Ibelle and her

husband Bill, his son Peter Ferrari and his wife Yvette; his grandchildren Ivan and

his wife Camila, Matthew, Lindsay and her husband Frank, Andrew and his wife

Amanda, Max, Taylor, Julia and her husband Chris, Dominique and her husband

Trey, Malina and her husband Matt, and Jackson; his great-grandchildren

Henry was preceded in death by his son Robert, his brothers Paul and David, and
