Lucy Marie (Gatto) Perullo

Lucy (Gatto) Perullo (94), a lifelong resident of Revere, entered into rest at her home on August 26, 2024. Lucy was a shining example of loyalty, compassion, and love for all who were privileged to know her. Her thoughtful nature, inner strength, and limitless love for her family and friends formed the foundation of her extraordinary life. Additionally, Lucy's deep dedication to her faith was the guiding light that enriched her life and the lives of those around her.

Lucy's journey took her from being raised in Revere, Massachusetts, graduated from RHS Class of ‘48, to working as a supervisor at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, where she served with dedication until her retirement. Lucy loved to cook, enjoyed Zumba, and bowling, but shopping always held the top spot. Lucy was an enthusiastic sports fan, she supported the Bruins, Red Sox, and NE Patriots.  She was the most passionate about cheering on her children and grandchildren in their athletic pursuits.

Lucy’s life was greatly blessed by the deep love she shared with her late husband, Charles Perullo. Together, they created a warm home filled with laughter and love.  Lucy’s greatest joy was her children and grandchildren the center of her universe.  She is survived by her three children: daughter LouAnn and her husband Christopher Stanton of Melrose, daughter Mary and her husband David O’Neill of Bridgewater, and son Charlie and his wife Joanne (DeSimone) Perullo of Revere. Lucy also leaves behind five grandchildren: Charlie Perullo, Nicole Perullo and her fiancé Austin, James Perullo, Kristen and Tim Mickiewicz, and Kati and Tyler Begen, as well as two great-granddaughters, Cali and Isabella. Lucy was predeceased by her beloved sister the late Anna and Eddie Boyce of ME.  She is survived by numerous nieces and nephews, and her cherished Savage St. family. Lucy will be forever treasured and deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
