Beverly Gravino obituary: Clancy-Palumbo Funeral Home, East Haven

Beverly Gravino, 85 of East Haven passed away peacefully at home on January 13, 2026. She was born May 3, 1940 in New Haven to Nicholas and Rose (Zapert) Laurel. Beverly is survived by her loving and devoted daughter, Stacy Gravino of East Haven along with a nephew, Mark Gravino (Kara) of New Haven, niece, Lauren Grande of East Haven and great nieces/nephews; Michael Conroy, Nicole Conroy (Luis Nieves), Brandon Conroy and Robert Davis (Ava Fowler) and one great-great niece, Mayah Conroy.

Beverly is preceded in death by her parents, husband, Frank Gravino and a sister, Barbara Grande.

During the spring and summer Beverly could be found with her husband Frank in the gardens, tending to all the flowers she so loved. Beverly and Frank loved their home in East Haven, having moved into the town in 1966 and remained there until their deaths. Beverly had a smile for everyone, enjoyed seeing the neighborhood children at Halloween and loved to drive around town looking at the Christmas decorations. Beverly was known to enjoy a Wendy’s Taco Salad from time to time, and the company of her fur grandbaby, Baxter. She also enjoyed going to see her hairdresser, Pam Dziurgot once a month for her “therapy session”. Beverly has left a hole in our hearts but we know she is at peace now.

A private graveside service will be held at a later date in All Saints Cemetery, North Haven. All services are under the care of the Clancy-Palumbo Funeral Home, 43 Kirkham Ave., East Haven.
