Cornelia (Connie) Ferrari

Passed at age 53 (9/3/1973- 10/8/2026)

Medford & Billerica MA

Beloved mother, daughter, aunt, niece, cousin, godmother, caretaker, and proud Bostonian.

She is survived by her mother, Sharon Ferrari-Wilson (Florida); her daughters, Jamie Ferrari (Virginia) and Jordan Ferrari (New York); her sister, Lisa Tom (New Jersey); Brenden L’Homme and Cody Gusto (both of Massachusetts), whom she loved as her own sons, and their children; and the father of her daughters and son, Peter White.

She will also be lovingly remembered by her very best friends, Tanya Cook, Andrea Leone, Anthony Tarantino, Jessica Black, and Eric Mann.

She is now reunited in heaven with her loved ones who preceded her in death, including her brother, George Gusto; her father, Bernard Ferrari; her stepmother, Paula Ferrari; and her grandmother, Dorothy Ritvo.

A strong single mother, compassionate certified nursing assistant and home healthcare aid, and skilled hairstylist and cosmetologist. Her laugh was pure sunshine—impossible to ignore and impossible not to join in. She poured life into everything and everyone around her. She found happiness in the little things, always gave more than she had, and loved as fiercely as possible.

She spent her final months enjoying her favorite popsicles outside by the pool, soaking up the warm Florida sunshine and playing backgammon with her mother on their lanai.

In keeping with her wishes, no service will be held, allowing those who loved her to remember her as she was. An avid animal lover who never failed to cry during the ASPCA commercial featuring the song “Angel,” she would have appreciated memorial donations made in her honor to the ASPCA.
