Beverly Borrello Obituary

Beverly Ann Borrello passed away on Sunday, October 1, 2023, at the age of 81. Beverly was born in New Orleans to the late Maurice "Tony" and Orla "Cookie" Cucurullo. She was the beloved wife of Vincent P. Borrello, Sr. for 57 years; loving mother of Gina Blanda (Leon), Donna Tucker (Frank), Vinny Borrello, Jr. (Breezy), and Joey Borrello (Stephanie); beloved sister of Gail Ducote (Mickey), loving grandmother to seven grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews. She is also survived by her beloved brother-in-law, Peter P. Borrello, Jr. (Sylvanie). Beverly and her loving husband, Vinny, became childhood sweethearts in 1953. They married in 1960 and raised four children. The most important thing to Beverly was the love of her family. Beverly enjoyed spending her time with her husband and family, playing tennis, cruises, beach vacations, lounging by the pool, and cooking amazing family meals. Beverly was a Minute Clerk in Orleans Parish Juvenile Court for 20 years. Relatives and friends are invited to attend a Celebration of Life at Lakelawn Metairie Funeral Home, 5100, Pontchartrain Boulevard, New Orleans, on Saturday, October 7, 2023, from 9 AM to 12PM.

I remember both Beverly and Vinny from childhood living on the 2800 block of Bruxelles st. I met both later in life when they came into my workplace (bank). It was great catching up after all those years and like we never lost touch. Ah! The good old days on Bruxelles st. May Beverly rest in peace and I know she is now complete being reunited with her love.

Sympathies to Beverly's family from someone who remembers fondly the wholesome fun we had as children of the 50's at the corner of Bruxells & Abundance Streets.
