Henry Charles “Buzz” Bellace, 96, of Plymouth Meeting passed away peacefully on Friday November 28, 2025 at his home surrounded by his loving family. Born on January 31, 1929 in Blue Anchor New Jersey, he was the son of the late John & Lena (Panepinto) Bellace, and the beloved husband of Sue Anne Bellace.
Buzz was a devout parishioner of the Holy Saviour Church for many years, and dedicated his time to many church groups and organizations. Buzz also worked for Local Union 542 as operating engineer until his retirement in 1996. In his spare time Henry was a talented mechanic and had a knack for fixing things for others whenever he had the opportunity. Henry also enjoyed traveling with his beloved wife and especially enjoyed their trip to Italy together. But most of all he cherished the time he was able to spend with his family. He was a devoted husband, loving father, brother, grandfather, great grandfather, and a dear friend to all who had the pleasure of knowing him and he will be missed by many.
In addition to his wife, Henry is survived by his five loving children, Patricia (Robert) MacMullan, Phyllis (Anthony) Piacentino, Andrea (William) Dyer, Michele (Frank) Garofalo, and Michael (Cathy) Bellace. He is also survived by his nine loving grandchildren, and twelve loving great grandchildren.
In addition to his parents, Henry was preceded in death by his first wife, Carmella Ciocca; and his five siblings, John Bellace, Salvatore Bellace, Joseph Bellace, Theresa Palmo, and Mary Bellace.
