Nicholas Vizy
Nicholas Vizy, age 83, of Mantua, passed away peacefully on April 26, 2025, at Aurora Manor Special Care Centre.
Born on Aug. 6, 1941, in Budapest, Hungary, to Joseph and Helen Vizy, Nick’s life was a journey of resilience, devotion and unwavering love for family.
In 1963, Nick married the love of his life, Mary Ann Toth, with whom he shared nearly four decades of cherished memories until her passing in 2002. Together, they built a life grounded in hard work, family values and deep compassion. Their love endured life’s challenges with grace and warmth, a testament to the strength of their bond.
Nick dedicated his working years as a lineman for CEI, proudly serving his community with steadfast commitment.
He was a proud member of the Utility Workers Union of America Local 270, and his strength, work ethic and camaraderie earned him deep respect among his peers.
In 1977, he settled in Burton and later made his home in Mantua, in 2010, where he found peace in the quiet beauty of rural life.
Nick’s legacy lives on through his four beloved sons: Nick (Barbara) Vizy, of Hiram, Mark Vizy, of Kentucky, Neal (Diane) Vizy, of Mantua, and Nathan Vizy, of Chardon. He was a loving and devoted grandfather to six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, who will remember his gentle heart and his quiet wisdom.
He is now reunited in eternal peace with his dear wife, Mary Ann; his parents; his son Michael J. Vizy; and his brother, Kalman Vizy.
Nicholas Vizy’s life was defined by love, humility and strength. His enduring presence will be deeply missed, but the memories he created will continue to inspire and comfort those who knew him.
A visitation for friends and family will be held on Saturday, May 17, 2025, from 12-2 p.m., followed by a memorial service at 2 p.m., at Burr Funeral Home, 116 South St., Chardon.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that donations be made to a charity of one’s choice in Nick’s memory.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Burr Funeral Home and Cremation Service. Online condolences and shared memories may be offered at www.burrservice.com.
