She was married to Robert Falce for 37 years. She grew up in CT and lived in Newington for most of her life. She moved to Punta Gorda, FL, in 1984 to evade the New England winters.
She went to the Morse School of Business in CT, which prepared her for working with computers, and she worked most of her career at Travelers Insurance Company as a Program Analyst.
In her younger years, she volunteered with the CT Jaycees and the Boy and Girl Scouts of CT. She was a passionate crafter and made many of her daughters’ clothes growing up. Later in life, she took up the hobby of beading and loved creating beautiful jewelry for family and friends.
There will be a celebration of life held in her honor on Saturday, 5/11/2024, at 12:00 PM at our Savior Lutheran Church at 1655 Main Street, Newington, CT 06111.
