​Arthur “Artie” Canzonetti Memorial

March 2017

Arthur “Artie” Canzonetti succumbed to lung cancer and passed peacefully surrounded by his loved ones on February 2, 2017.

Artie was the Plant Manager / Chief Operation Officer at Oil Purification Systems, located in Waterbury, Connecticut.

Those who knew and worked with Artie knew him as a fun-loving, hard-working man dedicated to providing the best customer service possible. Being the prime contact for the owner-operator community, he became fast friends with those he met. Anyone lucky enough to spend time with him knew why he was nicknamed “Artie the One Man Party”. He enjoyed entertaining and keeping everyone happy, well-fed and watered.

He was extremely charitable and donated items for charity auctions to support owner operator organizations.

He loved the Yankees, Giants and talking sports, as well as playing golf with his friends.

May he rest in peace.
