Arlene Paparelli (Pellecchia), born on October 28, 1935, to Josephine and Ralph Pellecchia, passed away at the age of 88 on November 25th. She leaves behind a legacy of love, joy, and the warmth of family.
Arlene was the beloved wife of George Paparelli and a caring mother to her son, Frank Paparelli, married to Susan Paparelli, and her daughter, Georgiana Vuono, married to Mark Vuono. Her nurturing spirit was a cornerstone in the lives of her children and their spouses.
Arlene's joy multiplied as she became a grandmother to Anthony Vuono, Christine Weyant, Frank Paparelli Jr. , Daniel Paparelli, and Jessica Mastoris. With open arms, she welcomed Nicholas Mastoris, who married Jessica, and Ben Weyant, who married Christine.

The arrival of her great-grandchildren, Brayden, Maverick, Palmer, Michael, and Vincent, added a new dimension of delight to Arlene's life. Her role as a great-grandmother was a source of immense pride and happiness. She cherished their giggles, hugs, and every moment spent with them was a treasure she held close to her heart.
Arlene is also survived by her brother, Ralph Pellecchia, who shares the memories of their childhood and the family legacy.
Beyond her family, Arlene's passions included cooking, dancing, crocheting various items for loved ones, and staying active at her local community center. These activities were not just hobbies but extensions of her vibrant personality and zest for life.
As we mourn the loss of Arlene, we also celebrate a life well-lived. Her laughter, her love for life, and her unwavering dedication to her family will be dearly missed. Arlene Paparelli was not just a name; she was a beacon of love and joy and her memory will continue to be a source of strength and inspiration to all who knew her.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to a charity dear to Arlene's heart. A private service will be held to celebrate her life, honoring a woman whose influence, love, and laughter will forever remain in our hearts. Arlene Paparelli's journey on earth may have concluded, but her legacy will continue to inspire and guide us.
