Wanda Stella Marchionni, September 22, 1926-July3,2022
Wanda, 95, went home to be with the Lord. She passed peacefully at Southington Care Center after a long convalescence. Wanda was born to Teofil and Stella Suchowiecki on September 22, 1926 in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. She lived her adult life in New Britain and Kensington Connecticut.
Wanda was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend to many. She held several jobs over her life, primarily in retail. She was active in local politics. Her biggest love was her family. Wanda had a close group of friends with whom she shared her life. She brought compassion, laughs, and memories to everyone in her world. She was an inspiration to others by never indulging in self-pity or negative thinking, even during great challenges.
In addition to her parents, Wanda was predeceased in death by her husband, Brandino Marchionni, three sisters and two brothers and a dear friend Stanley Paulauskas. Left to cherish her memories are her son, Leonard of Charlotte, North Carolina, his wife Patricia, daughters Ann Perzan and her husband Thomas of Osterville, Massachusetts, Janine Smith and her partner Dwayne Couch of Westcliffe, Colorado. In addition she leaves seven grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren a full life.
The family would like to thank Southington Care Center for their love and care over the past 7 and a half years.
As a celebration of Wanda’s life, a service will be held at St. Paul Church, on Alling Street in Kensington, CT at 10:00AM on July 7, 2022 followed by a graveside service at St. Mary’s Cemetery in New Britain.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital or a charity of your choice.
