Carol, the most loving and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, is survived by her husband, Robert W. Falcigno; son, Robert A. Falcigno (Megan Bozzuto) of Branford; and three granddaughters, Alexis Falcigno, Brittany Falcigno, and Cassandra Falcigno. She is also survived by her brother Raymond Werle Jr. of East Haven.

She worked for Knudsen’s Dairy and also for Gift Haven of East Haven before becoming a passionate homemaker and mother. A lifelong resident of East Haven, she also served on the board of the East Haven Inland Wetlands Commission. A lifelong, passionate Boston sports fan, she loved her “Sox” and her Patriots.
