Delores A. (Petrillo) DeVito, 75, of Danvers, passed away peacefully in her sleep, surrounded by her family, on Feb. 2nd, 2006, after a lengthy illness.
She was the wife of Angelo M. “Sonny the Barber” DeVito with whom she shared 58 years of marriage. She was the daughter of the late Anthony Petrillo Sr. and the late Vienna (Cozzi) Petrillo of Medford.
She loved and enjoyed raising her family and being an executive hostess for restaurants such as the Red Coach Grill, Jack Hackett’s and The Continental in the 1980’s. She loved the beach, nature and taking day-trips to Foxwoods Casino until her health worsened.
