Frederick (Fred) Gramazio of Wareham, MA. passed away on Oct. 20th at the age of 71 after a long battle with cancer.

Fred was born on February 4th along with his twin sister Dot Doherty. He always told folks that he was a gentleman and let her enter first into the world.

Fred was the third oldest of nine Children, and the oldest of five boys, He was an avid fisherman and had a passion for the ocean waters. If Fred was nowhere to be found we knew to head to Plymouth and look by the Jetty because that’s where we would find him. Rod in hand, bait in the bucket.

Fred worked for many years for the Zildjian Cymbal Company. He was so proud to say that he made the cymbals for the band Aerosmith.

Fred was predeceased by his parents Frederick and Dorothy, his step father Americo Gramazio, his brothers Peter Gramazio, and Robert Gramazio, and his Brother in laws; John Doherty and David Lindstrom.

Fred is survived by his Son Fred Schomberg, and his Grandson Fred Schomberg Jr..
