Jake Pizette

Jake A. Pizette, 28, of Hopkinton passed away July 25. Born in Framingham, he was the son of Lynne C. (Pizette) Boisvert and her husband, Normand “Joe” Boisvert of Hopkinton.

In his younger years, Jake enjoyed horseback riding every summer and taking art classes at Danforth Museum in Framingham. Jake was very creative. He continued his art in many forms and explored various mediums over the years, including canvas and T-shirts. His dream was to go to California and make a name for himself. He was a big dreamer, and he loved music and movies.

Jake loved art and animals, but what Jake loved most of all was being a father. His happiest times were playing with his children. Being a father was especially important to him because he never had one in his life.

Besides his mother, he is survived by his brother, Joshua M. Pizette; two children, Vanna Lynne Alton and Sace David Alton; his children’s mother, Sarah DelBene; his stepson, Tre Anthony Delbene (all of Hopkinton); and his grandfather, David E. Senior of Hopkinton.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate assistance with funeral costs (gofund.me/9f692367). Any remaining funds will go to Jake’s children.

Funeral arrangements are being held privately and are under the care of the Chesmore Funeral Home of Hopkinton.
