Rita Coppola

Margherita “Rita” M. Coppola, 89, of Palm Coast, Florida passed away peacefully on Feb 8th with her loving husband of 63 years, Joseph Coppola, by her side.

Rita had a long career as an executive secretary to the CEO of Pitney Bowes in Stamford, Connecticut. After retiring together, Rita and Joe owned and operated a marina together on Lake St. Catherine in Vermont.  Rita’s final years were spent enjoying the Florida lifestyle in Palm Coast.

Rita loved traveling, hosting friends and family, and all sorts of sports, especially Sunday football!  She had a generous heart, a beautiful spirit, and a deep faith. Rita always felt she was blessed with amazing family and friends and an incredible life.

She is survived by her husband, Joseph, as well as many nieces and nephews who loved her immensely and will miss her dearly.

A Memorial Mass for Rita will be held at Corpus Christi Catholic Church in St. Augustine, Florida at 11:00 AM on Monday, March 7th. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at St. Philip Church in Norwalk, Connecticut at 11:00 AM on Saturday, March 19th.  In lieu of flowers, Rita’s family encourages you to donate to the charity of your choice in her honor.
