Judy Addazio died Feb. 22 at home after a long battle with cancer. She was 72.
She was the beloved wife of David Addazio.
Judy was born Feb. 14, 1950, in Torrington, Conn., the daughter of the late Fredrick C. Petrovits and Hilda Constable Petrovits. She graduated from Torrington High School in 1968.
She had a long corporate career at The Travelers, with her final position being treasurer of Travelers Life and Annuity. Following her early retirement from the corporate world, she spent many years volunteering for nonprofit organizations in Torrington. She served on the board of the Torrington Library and was president of Altrusa International of Litchfield County. She also devoted time to the Coe Memorial Park Committee, LARC Festival of Trees, and America Reads.
Her love of Martha’s Vineyard started in the early 1970s and continued with the purchase of a summer home in 1995. She finally moved to the Island full time in 2020.
She was grateful for the large groups of friends and relatives who supported her through various cancers since 1987.
