Paul Mansella

1962 where he met and married his beloved wife. He and Rose spent 40 years in Tolland, where they raised two beautiful children, and then spent nine wonderful retirement years at The Villages in FL. Paul enjoyed spending time with his family and friends, having a glass

of wine, great food and good laughs. His hobbies included cross country skiing, swimming, bowling and above all golfing, where he got a hole in one on September 17, 2010. In addition to his devoted wife Rose, Paul will be dearly missed by his two children, daughter Maria Tata and her husband Sebastian and son Frank Mansella and his wife Michele, all of Coventry. He also leaves behind five grandchildren, Anthony and Lydia Tata and Sophia, Joseph and Julia Mansella, along with a brother, sister, brother-in-law, sister-in- law and many nieces and nephews. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Tuesday (April 29) at 10 AM at St. Bernard Catholic Church, 25 St. Bernard’s Terrace, Vernon. Everyone is invited to go directly to the church. The family will receive relatives and friends on Monday from 4-7 p.m. at the D’Esopo Funeral Chapel, 277 Folly Brook Blvd., Wethersfield.
