Elaine E. (Castelli) Razza

born on February 18, 1933, in Hartford, Connecticut, passed away peacefully on October 23, 2024, surrounded by her loving family. Elaine's life was a beautiful tapestry woven with care for her family and a dedication to her career. She served as an office manager for Barker-Chadsey Company and later for May Engineering, where her organizational skills and warm demeanor left a lasting impression on colleagues and clients alike.

Elaine was known for her passion for cooking, cherishing the times spent in the kitchen preparing meals for her family. These moments were filled with love and laughter, creating memories that will forever be held dear by those who knew her. In addition to cooking, she enjoyed the quiet challenge of crossword puzzles, a hobby that kept her mind sharp and engaged.

Elaine was a beloved mother, grandmother, and sister, leaving behind her son Anthony Razza and his wife Lynn, as well as her cherished grandchildren Ryan Razza, Christopher Razza, Abrianna Razza, Emmalee Razza, Elyssa DaRosa, and Victoria DaRosa. She is also survived by three great-grandchildren who brought immense joy to her life. Her sisters Virginia LaFazia and Laura Seabury will remember her as a source of strength and support.

Elaine now joins her late father Guido Castelli and her mother Josephine (DeLuca) Castelli in eternal rest. She is also reunited with her son Alfred Razza and his wife Deborah, her brother Guido "Buddy" Castelli, and sister Gloria Ricci.

Elaine will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her legacy of love, kindness, and family devotion will resonate in the hearts of her loved ones for generations to come.
