Dean A. Pallozzi, 62, of Underhill, Vt., passed away unexpectedly on December 26, 2025, in Fort Myers, Fla., surrounded by his loving wife, Beverly, and his caring sister, Lorna. Dean was born on March 16, 1963, in Concord, Mass., and was the son of Agnes (Kielty) and Salvatore Pallozzi.
Dean graduated from Concord-Carlisle High School, class of 1981. He was a member of the CCHS tennis team that placed second in the state finals in 1981. Dean obtained a bachelor of arts and master of science degrees in math and biostatistics from the University of Vermont.
Dean had a rewarding career in data governance, forecasting and data analytics. For the past 10 years, he was employed in security administration, overseeing electronic health records and health data for UVM Health. In addition, he was part of the team responsible for generating data that informed community health improvement efforts for the state of Vermont. Dean was cherished by his colleagues because of his kindness, intelligence and commitment to professional excellence.
Dean was noted as being an exceptionally kind and thoughtful person, and he loved animals, especially his cats. He enjoyed plants, flowers and gardening at his home in Vermont. He and his friends had many memories of swimming at Huntington Gorge in Vermont.
Dean was passionate about the outdoors and was an avid and graceful skier and a competitive tennis player well into his adult life. For many years he skied the gorges at Tuckerman Ravine, but his favorite mountain for skiing was Mount Mansfield in Stowe, Vt., which he could see from his home in Underhill.
Dean was predeceased by his father, Salvatore. He is survived by his mother, Agnes Pallozzi; his wife of 32 years, Beverly; his sister, Lorna Hayward (Matthew) of Wellesley; and his brother, John Pallozzi (Sandra) of Acton. Dean also leaves behind nieces and nephews Julia and Andrew Hayward and Alexander and Dani Pallozzi. He will be greatly missed by all those who knew and loved him.
A celebration of life will take place in May 2026 in Vermont. A private interment will take place at Sleepy Hollow Cemetery in Concord.

This is a very sad piece to read. It’s lovely that Dean was surrounded by his wife and sister at the end. I was struck by the mention of the 1981 CCHS tennis team placing second in the state finals—that must have been a proud moment for him and his classmates. What a legacy to leave behind.
Dean was my freshman dorm mate, house mate later on, and one of my groomsmen when I was married some years later. He was a consistent friend and correspondent to both me and my wife; she loved him and his wife, Bev, as well. They were always part of our plans when we’d travel north to Vermont.
His passing has left a large hole in the lives of all his many friends. Our love for him and Bev has shown through in all the phone calls and texts we’ve exchanged since that day in December. I’m proud to have known him and shared in his life. He won’t let us forget.
Dear Bev,
So sorry to hear this sad news.
With love,
Tammy & John Boudah
I enjoyed working with Dean these last few years. He was always so friendly and patient and willing to learn. I feel lucky to have known him.
