Theresa "Terry" Maffucci

Theresa "Terry" (Amato) Maffucci, 97, of Wethersfield, beloved wife of the late Bernard "Bernie" Maffucci, peacefully went to meet her heavenly Father on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, with her family by her side.

She enjoyed traveling to her home country of Italy many times with family and friends and was a huge UCONN Women's basketball fan.
