David Benjamin Stone

It is with great sadness that we share that David (Dave) Benjamin Stone, of Milford, MA, passed away January 7, 2024 surrounded by love.

He grew up in Newton, MA where he found his true passion at a very young age: Cars. A true grease monkey, Dave was a muscle car enthusiast.  He began his long career as a Taxi Cab driver and a tow truck driver where he really fell in love with fixing cars.

He then worked at a few different garages, including Zayers where he met his then wife, Joanie; who he remained close with up until the day of his passing.  Ultimately he became the proud owner of what we all have known as our second home for the last 30 years, Stone’s Auto Service in Natick, MA.

He was the devoted father to Matthew Stone, Samantha Camuti and her husband Christopher, Andrew Stone, Joshua Stone, and Maranda Stone. He shared his passion with his kids by watching NASCAR on Sundays and shoveling everyone in the car to head to a car show.

He was the very proud grandfather of Charlie and Casey. He shared that being a dad was great but there was really something special about being a Grandpop.

Loving brother of James Stone, and Carolyn Lilien. Dear son of the late Paul and Pearl (Itkin) Stone and a very loyal friend to all.

If you knew Dave at all you already know the kind of person he was; extremely generous and selfless; always giving, never taking and always trying to do the right thing and be fair to everyone.

A graveside service will take place for family and close friends. In lieu of flowers donations can be made in memory of Dave to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
