Nancy Woodmansee Obituary

Bozrah – Nancy Rose (Vitagliano) Woodmansee, 89, of Bozrah, formerly of Uncasville, passed away October 14, 2025 at her home at Elmbrook Village Assisted Living in Bozrah. Nancy was born in Norwich, September 15, 1936, the daughter of Rose (Rygielski) and Thomas Vitagliano. Nancy graduated from Norwich Free Academy in 1954. She worked as a Dental Hygienist, an operator and frame tech at SNET, and later a switchboard operator at Lawrence & Memorial. Nancy leaves behind her daughter, Linda Berman (Michael) of Canton, MA, son, Andy Moody (Sharon) of Oakdale, son John Moody (John Morton) of San Jose, CA; step-children, Mike Falcone and Cindi Baker; grandchildren, Anson Moody, Amanda and Ericka Berman; a great-granddaughter Grace Moody; a sister, Roberta Connell, and brother Tom Vitagliano, and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her granddaughter Sara Moody, and her sister Patricia Sienkowski. Nancy loved to travel to foreign places and had a knack for crafts, sewing, and cake decorating. She was up for anything and had many friends. When she moved into Elmbrook Village 3 years ago, she always made time for playing games, going to exercise, and enjoying happy hour in the pub with the many friends she made there. We can't thank enough the special people who enjoyed spending time with Nancy as well as the aides and nurses at Elmbrook Village and Assured Quality Homecare for making Nancy feel loved and well cared for. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held November 3, 2025 at 10 a.m. at Saint John the Evangelist Church, 22 Maple Avenue, Uncasville, CT. In lieu of flowers please consider donating to the telephone company's volunteer organization, The Pioneers, at PioneersVolunteer.org or Hospice Care, 227 Dunham Street, Norwich, CT 06360.

Dear Linda, Andy and John -- my memories of your Mom date back to the 1960s on Crestview Drive -- and here is what I remember about her -- warm, funny, smart, capable, friendly, a natural ease about herself. I also remember your pool and how all us kids were invited over -- it was simply the most fantastic thing ever! I can still picture that pool today and can vividly picture your Mom's great smile and welcoming manner. She was a cool Mom before cool was invented. May Nancy rest in peace now.
