Obituary of Roberta Fabrizio Cemprola

Roberta Fabrizio Cemprola, of Greenwich, CT, sadly lost a short, but courageous battle with lung cancer on November 5, 2024 at the much too young age of 53, surrounded by her loving family.

Roberta was born in Bridgeport, CT on May 29, 1971 to her parents Antoinetta and the late, Rocco Fabrizio. She was raised in Bridgeport and was part of the Notre Dame High School Class of 1989. She attended Sacred Heart University and over the years worked for a few Bridgeport law firms until she had her children. Most recently, however, Roberta worked as a Program Coordinator for The Workplace, in Bridgeport, CT.

Roberta is survived by her young, beautiful daughters, Julianna and Isabella Cemprola; her mother, Antoinetta Tocci Fabrizio; two brothers, Fabrizio Fabrizio and his wife Suzanne and Anthony Fabrizio and his partner Sylvana Chiluisa; her nieces Gabriella, Carla and Sofia Fabrizio; as well as many extended family members and very close friends who will all miss her dearly.

Roberta was predeceased by her father, Rocco Fabrizio in 1997. Roberta was a very proud first-generation Italian American. She adored her parents' hometown of San Donato Val di Comino in Italy, spoke fluent Italian and cherished every opportunity to visit her family and lifelong friends there.

Roberta was a faithful and spiritual person. She had a fun sense of humor, and was dedicated to staying healthy and loved working out. She enjoyed trips into NYC with her girls and would think nothing of getting in the car and heading to Manhattan for lunch and a stroll with them. You could always count on Roberta to be in tune with the latest fashion trends and celebrity gossip. She will be missed beyond measure, but will forever be in our hearts.

The family would like to thank the nurses and staff at Greenwich Hospital's Medical Oncology unit for the compassion and care you gave to Roberta. We are forever grateful.
