Nancy Suzanne Marucci's Obituary
Nancy Suzanne Marucci, age 66, passed away on Thursday, May 25, 2023, in Millsboro, DE, after a long battle with cardiovascular disease. She was born on August 22, 1956, in Alexandria, VA, daughter of the late John Joseph and Patricia (Fitzgerald) Marucci.
Nancy attended the University of Maryland, where she immersed herself in political science, pre-law, and women’s studies. Her career took her in a different direction, and she dedicated many years to a large technology company as a project consultant. Nancy had many interests and hobbies. She loved to draw and create art that she gave to friends and family, and she had a passion for baking and great skill and love for catering special events, both large and small. Nancy loved coastal living and especially spending days at the beach with the sun on her face and her toes in the sand. She will be forever missed by all who had the good fortune to know her.
In addition to her parents, Nancy was preceded in death by her husband, Melvin Burroughs. She is survived by her sisters: Johnna Hilliard of AZ, Gaetana Wolff of NM, and Toni LaGatta of NC; her brother, Dan Marucci of VA; her many nieces and nephews; and all of her “babies” whom she nannied throughout the years.
