Lucy (Jarvis) Cannarella, 94, of Plainville, passed away comfortably in her home on November 3. She was predeceased by her husband of 69 years, Andrew J. Cannarella. Born July 13, 1923 to Sebastiano and Rosa (Arcidicono) Gervasi in New Britain, CT, Lucy grew up playing with her cats, dogs, and horses on the family farm until she was old enough to sneak out for long nights of dancing with friends. She lived in Plainville for 50 years and spent many years working as a machine operator for General Electric. Mitzi to her friends, she always maintained an active social life, hosting her monthly card games and attending outings with the Plainville Senior Center. Her family was everything to her, and when you were in her home, you were family. She could often be found in a lawn chair next to her husband cheering on her grandchildren’s various athletic teams or attending their concerts.
Lucy is survived by a son, Thomas Cannarella, and his wife Gail; daughter Nancy Niedzwiecki; daughter-in-law Lynn Corbatt; five grandchildren: Allison, Matthew, Susan, Sara, and Max, and many nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by her son, Danny; sister, Anna; and brothers, Michael, John, and Paul.
