Publish in a newspaper

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Theresa Bonfiglio on October 18, 2025, just three days shy of her 100th birthday. Theresa was a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend whose warmth, strength, and kindness touched the lives of many.
Born on October 21, 1925, Theresa was the cherished daughter of the late Aniello and Fidelia "Helen" (Giardullo) Bruno. She was preceded in death by her devoted husband, Joseph Bonfiglio, with whom she shared a loving life.
Theresa is survived by her loving son, Peter Bonfiglio, and his wife Rhonda. She was the proud grandmother of Joseph Bonfiglio and his wife Nicole, and Jodi Ann Doyle and her husband Cory. Theresa's joy was multiplied by her great-grandchildren: Cordelia, Wyatt, George, and William, who brought light and laughter into her later years.
She was also blessed with many brothers and sisters, and countless nieces and nephews, all of whom held a special place in her heart.
The family extends their deepest gratitude to PACE Winthrop, Element Care Beverly, and the compassionate team at Essex Park in Beverly for their outstanding care and support during Theresa's final years.
A memorial mass will take place on Saturday, October 25th, at 11:00 AM at St. Mary of the Annunciation Church in Danvers, MA.
In accordance with the family's wishes, in lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Theresa's name to the Neighborhood PACE Program, 26 Sturgis Street, Winthrop, MA 02152. To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Theresa, please visit our floral store.
