Margaret Fiore, 69 years old and a life-long resident of Norwalk, passed away on March 10th after a two-and-a-half-year fight with pancreatic cancer. She was the daughter of the late Nicholas and Theresa Bredice. Margaret will be dearly missed by her husband of 46 years Gary Fiore and her daughter Lauren and her husband Brian Volpe of Naugatuck. Margaret is also survived by her brother Michael Bredice of Norwalk.
Margaret was a loving and caring wife, mother and friend … and a great cook. She made flags for several of the area Marching Band Color Guards. Margaret loved to do research on the Internet, feed her squirrel and chipmunk friends, and maintain her butterfly bushes hoping that more butterflies would return each summer.
