About Island Cremations & Funeral Home
Proudly offering cremation services in Brevard county, Florida.
Family owned, full service funeral home.
Paul T Mazzoni is a Licensed Funeral Director and the Founder of Island Cremations. Every aspect of funeral service and helping families through their loss has always appealed to Paul, and he made funeral service his life's ambition from an early age.

Having lived and worked in communities throughout Pennsylvania for most of his career, Paul owned and operated the Paul T. Mazzoni Funeral Home in Eynon, Pennsylvania. Seeking to further his professional career and expand opportunities for his family, Paul obtained his Florida Funeral Director's license, sold his Pennsylvania funeral home, and relocated his family to Satellite Beach, Florida.
In 1997, Paul joined Florida Memorial Funeral Home as a Funeral Director and quickly advanced into leadership roles, eventually serving as General Manager. During his tenure, he was selected to help launch and promote the Dignity Memorial brand and participated in the company's Dignity of Success leadership program in St. Louis and Houston. Throughout his career, Paul has remained dedicated to serving families, supporting his community, and participating in programs that honor public servants and first responders.
Recognizing the growing need for affordable and dignified cremation services, Paul founded Island Cremations with a commitment to providing compassionate care, transparency, and exceptional service to families throughout Florida. As a funeral director, his focus has always been on helping families navigate one of the most difficult times in their lives with comfort, guidance, and professionalism.
In December 2014, Paul's son, Dillon Mazzoni, joined Island Cremations and began working alongside his father while pursuing his funeral service education. After graduating from Lock Haven University in Pennsylvania with a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice, Dillon attended St. Petersburg College and earned his Florida Funeral Director and Embalmer licenses. Learning every aspect of the profession directly from Paul, Dillon developed a deep commitment to serving families with compassion, integrity, and respect.
In 2019, Dillon assumed ownership of Island Cremations, continuing the vision and values established by his father. Under Dillon's leadership, the company has continued to grow while maintaining its reputation for personalized service, affordability, and excellence in cremation and funeral care. Today, Dillon serves as Owner, Licensed Funeral Director, and Embalmer, remaining dedicated to helping families through life's most challenging moments.
Also joining the family business full-time in 2019 was Paul's son, Blake Mazzoni, who became a Licensed Crematory Operator for Island Cremations. Having grown up around the funeral profession, Blake understands the importance of treating every family and loved one with dignity and respect. He plays a critical role in overseeing cremation operations and ensuring the highest standards of care are maintained throughout the entire process.
When the Mazzoni family opened Space Coast Crematory in 2020, Blake became the primary operator of the facility, helping provide families with the peace of mind that their loved ones remain under the care of the Island Cremations team from the moment they are entrusted to them until the completion of the cremation process.
Paul is blessed with his wife, Annie, and their three sons, Dillon, Blake, and Chase. Together, the Mazzoni family continues a tradition of compassionate service, helping families throughout Florida with professionalism, integrity, and genuine care.
