Sally Ivaldi Obituary
She was born on Dec. 16, 1947, in Danbury to Harriet (Singer) and Leo Susnitzky. Sally grew up in Brewster, New York, and graduated from Brewster High School in 1965. She then went off to the University of Pittsburgh, graduating with a bachelor of science in 1969. While attending PITT she met the man of her dreams, Ernest Ivaldi Jr. They married in May 1969.
Sally was an avid traveler who loved going out to see the world, visiting different states and other countries. After her retirement from her longtime position as billing manager at the law office of Pomeranz, Drayton, and Stabnick, she got involved in volunteering in her local community. She volunteered at Hockanum Valley Community Center supporting their counseling department and was an active member of Beth Shalom B'nai Israel congregation, serving as co-president of the Sisterhood chapter, as well as serving on the board as vice president of administration and vice president of membership.
Along with her parents, Sally was predeceased by her husband, Ernest Jr., who passed away 26 years ago. Sally is survived by her two children, son Michael Ivaldi and his wife, Lisa, and daughter, Debra Carlson and her husband, Benjamin; sister, Ellen Golden; sister-in-law, Jean Dickson. She also leaves behind her grandchildren: Lauren, Josh, Allesandra, Michael, Alyssa, Evan, and Lucas. Also, her great-grandchildren, Madison and Mackenzie.
Sally will be missed by her vast network of friends that not only span across Connecticut but the nation.

Sally brought joy. Always a smile and true friendship. She helped with establishing the Vernon Teen Center in memory of my son. Years could pass without seeing each other but when we talked, it was as if only a day went by. We shared our losses and our difficult times, and I always knew Sally would be the same-kind, open, and caring. I will miss you, my friend.
