In Memory Of Velio Mallozzi

Velio Mallozzi  - October 29, 2018

In memory of Velio Mallozzi, proprietor of Branch Barber Shop in Smithtown, it will be a year of his passing on October 29, 2018.  He was a staple in the community along with his Uncle John Pennone, a total of 54 years in the same shopping center. 

Vee loved and appreciated his loyal customers, giving free cuts on their Birthdays and to family and clergy.  When his health was failing, he visited the shop.  Since it was his passion, he started cutting again.  He was a spirited man, full of ambition, hope, goodness and compassion.

A sincere thank-you to his customers near and far for their loyalty and making it all possible. He loved sharing jokes and chatting with all of you. He loved his profession. 

May He Rest In Peace.
