Marcella Anne “Marcy” (George) Petruzzi, 67, of Boardman passed away suddenly on Thursday, November 11, 2021.
Marcy was a brilliant woman, a loving wife, mother, sister, and aunt who will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
Born on October 1, 1954, Marcy was the daughter of Francis and Margaret (Koury) George. In 1972, she graduated from Ursuline High School, and, in 1977, earned a Bachelor of Science
degree in Medical Technology from Youngstown State University. Marcy was employed as a medical technologist at Northside Hospital for 22 years, where she taught medical technology
students and medical residents in addition to working in the hematology department and quality control. Later, she worked for many years as a Clinical Research Coordinator at St. Elizabeth
Hospital and retired in 2016.
A natural artist, Marcy’s talents resulted in beautiful pottery and jewelry, and, in the kitchen, delicious meals she prepared for family and friends. In addition, she was a remarkably witty,
funny person who easily commanded a room and entertained all who had the privilege of knowing her with her story-telling and mimicry.
Marcy will be remembered and cherished by all who loved her: her husband of 43 years, John Petruzzi of Boardman; her children, John Guy Petruzzi of Boardman and Gianna Marcella
Petruzzi of Boardman; her siblings, Jeffry George of Cortland, Daniel (Pam) George of Midland, Texas, Mary Bess George of Canfield, and Timothy (Patty) George of Boardman; her
brothers-in-law James (Patty) Petruzzi of Girard, Edward (Rhonda) Petruzzi of Youngstown, and William Guy Petruzzi of Toledo; her sisters-in-law Patty(Frank) Dundee of Boardman and Sandy (Tim) Ball of Youngstown; and many beloved nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
In addition to her parents, Marcy was preceded in death by her daughter Leah Christine Petruzzi, her brother Francis George, Jr., her in-laws Guy and Clara June (McDonough)
Petruzzi, and her sister-in-law Maggie Hagan.
