Helen Ann (Doner) Tuccillo, 77, of Prospect passed away on Wednesday, January 19, 2022. Helen was the widow of her beloved Daniel Tuccillo. She was born January 29, 1944 in Waterbury, a daughter of the late Harry and Gertrude (Tanner) Doner.
Helen and her husband Dan, her soulmate, were a dynamic team. The sun rose and set on her family. They were members of the Harness Horseman’s Association of New England (HHANE). Helen was Dan’s number one fan where as owner and jockey, Dan would compete in harness races all over the country. She enjoyed riding motorcycles, even riding her own to Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota. Helen was a wonderfully multifaceted woman. Most assuredly though, the focus of her life was her family. Helen was a wonderful mother. Daniel and Bernadette have so many treasured moments of traveling together, Sunday dinners and holidays.
Left to cherish Helen’s love and memory are her son Daniel Tuccillo of Prospect and daughter Bernadette Casson and her love John McCarthy of Prospect and her adoring grandchildren Nicholas and Christina Tuccillo and Alyssa and Brittney Casson. Helen is also survived by her brother Joseph Doner of Bristol and brother in law Ralph Tuccillo and his wife Marge.
Helen was predeceased by her husband Dan, and brothers Wesley, Vern, Robert, David and Harry as well as her sisters Pearl and Grace.
