Mark J. DeBrino

Mark J. DeBrino, 63, of East Haven, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday January 22nd, 2025. He was the husband of Cynthia Ferraiuolo Puccino. Mark was born in New Haven on April 1st, 1961. He was the son of Peter and Vivian (Manzi )DeBrino. Mark was the proud father of Alisha Dawn DeBrino and an extraordinary dad to his stepgirls Charla Puccino and Gabrielle Puccino. Mark also leaves behind three brothers, Matt DeBrino, Peter DeBrino (Gina) and Willy DeBrino and his nephew Tyler DeBrino who he was proud of as well. Mark was the adoring grandfather to his favorite little person, Louis Carfora. In addition to his family, Mark leaves behind many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends that will miss him. After retiring from the City of New Haven, Mark went to work at Brown School in Madison where he worked for many years. Mark was much brighter and louder than his stature. You often heard Mark before you saw him. Mark was always the first to offer help to anyone who needed it without hesitation and he received much joy in helping others even as his health was declining. Mark loved spending time with family and friends. He was also an avid Kansas City Chiefs fan when it wasn't cool. Mark was looking forward to welcoming his soon to be son in law, Jose Tirador to the family, seeing the Chiefs in the super bowl again, and spending time in warmer weather. Rest Mark. You're finally out of pain. The visiting hours will be on Saturday, February 1st from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM at The Havens Family North Haven Funeral Home. A service will be conducted in the funeral home at 12 noon. Interment will be private and at the convenience of the family.
