Cypra 'Cippy'

((Naparstek))

Alaimo

Obituary

Cypra (Naparstek) Alaimo of South Windsor, CT, passed away on July 6, 2017. Cypra was the daughter of the late Adolph and Ruth (Fischer) Naparstek. She was born on December 21, 1942 in Hartford, CT. She graduated from Weaver High School and attended the University of CT.

She was a strict celebrant of the Jewish Faith and kept all of the holidays throughout the year. As much as she enjoyed her own ethnic diet, she was in love with pasta and many Italian dishes. This was evident in the several trips we made to Italy, eating our way from the Italian Riviera to the Island of Sicily. Cypra and Ben also enjoyed traveling throughout Canada and the United States visiting many major cities and National Parks.

Cypra was employed by the Dept. of Social Services for 31 years as an Administrative Assistant and was retired for 20 years. Following her retirement, they purchased a Condo in Fort Myers Beach, FL and spent every winter of her retirement in Florida walking the beach, shelling, tropical bird watching and viewing the Dolphins breaking surf were her favorite pastimes. She was an avid reader of novels and loved shopping for clothes. Cypra ‘Cippy’ had many great friends with whom she spoke to on a near daily basis. Her longest cherished friendship goes back to childhood with Barbara Spivak, up to this date many social activities were shared with Barbara and Art (holiday dinners, religious celebrations, travel and dining out). The family is forever grateful for their support.

Judith Spazzarini and Cypra had enjoyed a similar relationship for over 30 years. Along with being together in CT, they also shared winters together at Ft. Myers Beach. Judy and Anthony also treated us like family inviting us to participate in family celebrations and social get togethers. Thank you.

A thank you to all the friends and family who have been part of her life in the past and for the difficult times recently shared.

A thank you to the nurses of the Wethersfield medical facility who made our visits comfortable.

A thank you to Patricia DeFusco, M.D., who time after time conquered year after year what appeared to be insurmountable.

Lastly thanks to the Hope and Hospice team of the Hartford Health Care at Home for their devotion and dedication in extending care and comfort.

Cypra is survived by her loving husband, Benjamin M. Alaimo, her sister-in-law, Muriel Naparstek, sister-in-law and brother-in-law Carmen and Stephen Locke, brother-in-law, Matthew J. Alaimo, Jr., her nephews, Mark Naparstek and his wife Patti, Scot Naparstek and his wife Darlene, Jeff Naparstek, Craig Naparstek and his wife Jennifer, her step-son, Matthew J. Alaimo and his wife Terry, step-son Benjamin M. Alaimo, Jr., her grandchildren, Nicholas Alaimo and Christopher Alaimo. She is also survived by several great nieces and nephews. Cypra was predeceased by her brother Thomas Naparstek.

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 am on Monday, July 10, 2017 in the Chapel of the Weinstein Mortuary, 640 Farmington Ave., Hartford, CT with Rabbi David J. Small officiating. Interment will follow in the Saint Patrick Cemetery, 1550 King Street, Enfield, CT. Donations in memory of Cypra may be made to the American Cancer Society at www.cancer.org.

Ben, Very sorry to hear about your Cippy. She was a wonderful , thoughtful woman who was fun to be with. She was always happy and smiling. Cippy was also a strong woman who met every challenge with both grace and courage. I will not be able to attend her services, still in R.I. Thinking of you every day. With deepest sympathy from my family and myself.

My memories of Cypra is of a beautiful woman who enjoyed life at Ft. Myers Beach. Through her illnesses, I never once heard her complain, just (with hands flying) said "it is what it is," and "what can do you?" She was uplifting to us as we talked many times over the railing at the condos.
We will all sorely miss this stylist lady and her smile.
We are deeply saddened, but know that she suffers no more and free from pain.
May she rest in peace.
Know that Ben will be in our thought and prayers during a most difficult time.
Fondly, Jean

Dear Ben, Muriel and Family,

We are heartbroken to learn of Cippy's passing. Tommy's kid sister. Have known her since childhood in the old days on Martin St in Hartford's Northend. Some 65+ years ago.

She was always warm, cheerful with a beautiful smile and, although we didn't see her often, each time was like yesterday.

Please accept our deepest condolences at this sad time, and know that we share your loss.

May her memory always be for a blessing, and may she rest in peace.
