Laraine C. Lapreay

Laraine C. (Maddalena) Lapreay, 80, lifelong resident of Southington, CT, passed away peacefully on Sunday, May 18, 2025, at the Southington Care Center. She was the beloved wife of the late Albert A. Lapreay, with whom she shared 58 years of marriage.

Born on June 3, 1944, in New Britain, CT, Laraine was the daughter of the late Emanuel and Anne (Palmieri) Maddalena. She was known for her love of cooking and her talent for hosting memorable holiday gatherings. Family meant everything to Laraine, and she cherished time spent with loved ones and good friends.

Laraine especially enjoyed shopping, going out to lunch, and playing bingo at the Southington Calendar House, where she was a proud member. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, wife, aunt, and friend, and also worked for several years in the Tax Department for the Town of Southington.

She is survived by her two sons, John Lapreay of Fairfield, and David Lapreay and his fiancée, Lara Nichols, of Bristol; as well as three beloved grandchildren, Michelle, Joseph, and Erica Lapreay. She was predeceased by her brother, Anthony Maddalena, and her daughter-in-law, Maria Lapreay.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to the Southington Care Center for their wonderful care and compassion during Laraine’s time there.
