He twice served in the U.S. Army (WWII and Korea) and retired as a Captain in the Dental Corp. Dr. Arcieri began his career as an associate dentist in Arlington, MA before opening his own practice at 590 East Broadway in South Boston, where he cared for this community for over four decades.
A respected dentist and Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry, Dr. Arcieri also served as President of the South Shore District Dental Society and the Guild of Saint Apollonia (the patron saint of dentistry). He was a dedicated faculty member at Tufts Dental School and a beloved mentor in the dental community. He was also a President of the Catholic Alumni Sodality of Boston.
Dr. Arcieri’s deep spirituality led him to become an ordained Deacon of the Catholic Church. He attended Mass daily and pursued additional training in Pastoral Care and hospital ministry, serving at the Carney Hospital in Dorchester, MA.
He married Vera Giannantonio in 1960 and moved to Milton, MA, where they raised three sons: Michael, Steven, and Joel.
