Age 47 of Brighton unexpectedly passed away on Wednesday July 25, 2018. He was born August 26, 1970 to parents Guy (Jack) Mancini and Lillian Mancini, both deceased. William grew up in Brighton and attended St. Patrick’s. He later attended UMASS in Lowell. Friends thought of Will as a Renaissance man, content to be listening to the Grateful Dead and making his legendary meatballs. His laugh and huge smile was a gift to those around him. Will’s passion for music was equal to the joy he felt being surrounded by friends and family. Will touched the lives of many and was taken far too soon. He was the light in many lives, loved by all, and will be forever missed.
He is survived by siblings Carol Atkinson and Richard Hatch. Nieces and Nephews: Donna Cerasulo-Pedraza, Alyssa Pedraza, Bianca Pedraza, Anasofia Hercules, Gina Bianchi, Stephanie Daigle, Kaylee Bianchi, Ron Cerasulo, Vanessa Cerasulo, Paul Atkinson Jr., Richard Hatch, Faith Hatch, Steven Hatch, Taylor Hatch, Victoria Hatch, Emily Hatch, Brian Hatch, Emma Hatch, Emelia Hatch. Cousin: Gregory Stevens. Boyfriend of Theresa Ronco.
