Melluzzo, Sebastian Joseph, age 78, of Kettering, Ohio passed away peacefully at home surrounded by family. Sebastian was born in Hartford, Connecticut, to Joseph and Louise Marie (Sicchia) Melluzo. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a son, Robbie Melluzzo, sisters Rosalie Andre, Grace Manginelli, and Dorothy Salustro.

Sebastian loved his wife, Linda, beyond all reason. They had a wonderful life together and enjoyed great trips with wonderful friends. Nicholas is the light of their lives, bringing them so much fun and pleasure. Seb was a great golfer, winning many awards here and in Florida. He was larger than life, one in a million, and will be in our hearts forever. Sebastian’s legacy will be his generosity and love of helping others.
