WATERBURY - Gloria Giuditta, age 96 of Waterbury, passed away peacefully on Friday, December 11, 2020 at Apple Rehabilitation in Watertown from complications related to the COVID #19 virus. She was the widow of Joseph Giuditta who passed away in 2000.

She enjoyed time spent in Cape Cod, was an avid NY Yankees and UCONN Women's fan, but most of all she enjoyed spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren. Gloria will be sadly missed by all who were blessed to know and love her.
