Brenda Joyce Pellegrino


Devoted mother and grandmother, Brenda Joyce (Magliochetti) Pellegrino, age 74, was reunited with her Heavenly Father on May 10, 2023. Brenda was born on January 9, 1949, to Armando and Mary Magliochetti in Bridgeport, Connecticut. She was the third of four daughters. She had fond memories of her childhood with her sisters and many cousins. She married Anthony Fredrick Pellegrino, Sr., and spent over 55 years together.
Brenda worked as a manager in multiple customer service positions as she had phenomenal leadership qualities. Dedicated to her family, she moved multiple times between Connecticut, Texas, and Michigan to be with family in their times of need and joy. Her greatest delights in life were spending time with her family, cooking diverse delicious meals, and taking care of others. She has provided great strength, loyalty, and love with her grandchildren, for which they have echoed immense gratitude. Being the matriarch of the family, she never feared to speak her mind to advocate for those she loved. She was a mother and confidant to many. She can be remembered for her warm, welcoming presence and her quick wit.
She is preceded in death by her loving, devoted father Armando; mother, Mary; her beloved sisters, Pamela Lowden, Patricia Anzollotti and Beverly Magliochetti; and son, Americo Pellegrino. She leaves behind earthside her children, Anthony Fredrick Jr., Armando Anthony, Mark Anthony, and Gina Marie Pellegrino. She will be greatly missed by many grandchildren, great grandchildren (known as Gigi), and extended family and friends. A private service was held by family.
