Angelo Feroce

Angelo Feroce, 67, of Killingly, CT, passed away on Wednesday, January 15th, 2025 surrounded by his loving family, after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Born on April 16, 1957, in Gallo Matese, Italy, Angelo was the beloved first and only son of Vincent and Maria (Chiodi) Feroce. In 1965, at 7 years old, he relocated with his immediate and extended family from Italy to the United States where they settled together in Warwick, RI. He was preceded in death by his father, Vincent, and leaves behind a legacy of enjoyment and dedication to his family and friends.
He is survived by his daughters, Ariana Feroce-Parsons and her husband, TJ, of Woodstock, CT and Amber Willis, and her fiancé, Jim Trudell, of Killingly, CT; his granddaughters, Giana Feroce and Brielle Parsons, who were the light of his life; his mother, Maria Feroce of Johnston, RI; his spouse of over 30 years, Sheila Feroce of Killingly, CT; his sisters, Anna Bailey (Mickey) of Johnston, RI and Antonetta Marley (Jimmy) of Warwick, RI; his nephews, Jason Marley and Michael Marley (Ashley) of Warwick, RI; his great-nephew Bodie Marley and many extended relatives and friends.
Angelo was a graduate of Pilgrim High Schools class of 1974 and went on to study at the University of Baltimore in Maryland. He retired to "Live the Dream" after a successful career as a Mortgage Broker with East Side Financial Services in Slatersville, RI. Always a hard worker, he continued using his exceptional sales skills part-time in retirement as the number one salesman in South Florida working for Gulfshore Heating and Cooling.
A lover of travel, Angelo spent his winters as a snowbird on Florida's Gulf Coast and summers enjoying the company of great friends at Hideaway Cove Campground in Dayville, CT. He had an appreciation for good music, political banter, warm weather, and his mother's authentic cooking. Whether offering a piece of wisdom or a quick-witted remark, Angelo's personality was vibrant and direct.
Of all his interests, nothing brought him more joy and fulfillment than being "Papa" to his two granddaughters. His love for them knew no bounds, and they were the heart of his world.
Angelo's spirit will live on in the many lives he touched with his humor, matter of fact personality and unwavering love for those he held close to him.
Calling hours will take place at Carpenter-Jenks Funeral Home, 659 E. Greenwich Avenue, West Warwick, RI on Saturday, January 25 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. concluding with a Catholic Prayer Service. Burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, Angelo would say "Cut it out, save your money".
