Marie Chiappetta Obituary
Marie A. Chiappetta (Mimi), of Greenwich, passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loving family, on June 5, 2025, at the age of 93. Maria was born on March 3, 1932 to Rocco and Anna Chiappetta. She was born and raised in Greenwich.
Maria is known by all in Cos Cob from her many years working in restaurants, especially The Country Squire. If you didn't see her at the restaurant, she could always be found walking throughout Cos Cob.
Marie loved and cherished her family. 25 years of Friday night dinners with Jane, Joe, Shabby and Eileen, and Wednesday night bowling with the girls. Marie belonged to the Social Seniors in Riverside and enjoyed the many trips to the casino or other outings. Marie loved the summer, being outside, reading, watching Hallmark movies and going to the Knights of Columbus. She was a loyal volunteer at the St. Roch Feast, in the burger booth, with her Knights of Columbus boys. Marie whole-heartedly loved life, loved being surrounded people, always had a smile on her face. Marie loved a party and you could always find her at an outside restaurant on Greenwich Avenue, enjoying a glass of Chardonnay.
Marie is now in heaven with her husband, Dominick (Chippy) Chiappetta, of 66 years, and her mother and father, Rocco and Anna Chiappetta, her brothers, Michael and Rocco (Shabby), loving brother-in-law, Joe Carriero, and sister in law, Eileen Chiappetta. She is survived by her cherished daughter, Marianne Andersen, her sister, Jane Carriero, her many nieces and nephews, and great-nieces and nephews.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Wednesday, June 11th, at 11am at St. Roch Church, 10 St. Roch Ave., Greenwich CT. Burial will be private. Friends and family may visit Tuesday, June 10th, from 4-8pm at Castiglione Funeral Home, 544 Old Post Rd. #3, Greenwich CT. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, stjude.org . Special thank you to Dr. Howes, Dr. Franco and his ICU team, and Dr. Mayus.

Marianne, Janie and family, I was so very sad to hear of Marie´s passing. So many memories of coffee time at my mom´s with Aunt Annie, Nonnie, Marie and Janie. I often ran into Marie and Chippy at the cemetery every Sunday. She was one of a kind, she brought sunshine everywhere she went. I know she´s back with Chippy now, and all of the family, but I know she´s will be deeply missed. I pray that all the precious memories will give you some comfort in the coming days.
With much love,
Roseann

Dear Maryanne, Your mom was so much fun! I remember when she would stop by to see you at the bank and always had a smile. She made those wonderful Christmas cookies too! Carl and I worked with her at the St Roch's Feast. She was a hard worker and kind person. Hold onto those memories. May God bless her and welcome her home!

Marianne and Janie, I am at a loss for words. I am so saddened by Marie's death. I have been thinking on what to say since I learned of her passing. What can I say that hasn't already been said? I can remember like it was yesterday going to her house on Harold Ave visiting her and your day and Aunt Annie. Her house and heart where always welcoming and full of love. I guess at one point I told her that I would take care of her as she got older and she never forgot that - always reminded me that I told her that. I never saw her without a smile on her face. She loved her family and friends. She is now reunited with Chippy and her parents and the rest of family that has gone before her. Sending much love to you both, Love, Kelly
