98, died on January 10, 2021. She was predeceased by her husband Frank, her son Frankie, her son-in-law Albert Tarro, and her sister Anne Parton. Born in the Rhondda Valley, South Wales, U.K., on January 1, 1923, she was the daughter of the late John and Elizabeth Thomas.
Mrs. Pezzelli and her husband were the co-founders and former owners of Brentwood Nursing Home. She was the loving mother of Vicki Tarro of Warwick and Carol Wise (Daniel) of Midlothian, VA.

She is also survived by many family members in Great Britain and Rhode Island.
Her family gratefully acknowledges management and staff at Cedar Crest Nursing Centre who lovingly cared for her in her final years.
