SILVESTRI, Faith F.

Faith F. Silvestri, 91, of Windsor, passed away peacefully on Sunday, (August 4, 2013) after a long illness. Born in East Hartford on July 21, 1922, she was the youngest daughter of the late John and Alice Foley. Faith moved to Simsbury in the mid-1950's, where she raised her four children while managing the office for her husband's business, Pine Glen Window Company. She moved to Windsor in 1987, where her passion for reading led her to become a page at the main branch of the Windsor Library until her retirement. In her later years she resided at Delamere Woods, where she was beloved by all. The family wishes to thank everyone at both Delamere Woods and Kimberly Hall North that took such good care of our mother. She is survived by her daughters AnnLouise M. Silvestri of East Granby; Hope S. DeSimone and her husband Chuck of Plymouth, MA; Jean S. Barz and her husband Eric, of Windsor; and by her son John L.

She was predeceased by her sisters Fran Corbett, Rosalie McLaughlin, and Ruth Donlon, as well as her ex-husband Louis P. Silvestri.
