Madiline R. “Bunny” (Bunnell) Picchione of Windham, CT, passed away on July 7, 2020. Born in Norwich, CT on May 29, 1928, she was the daughter of the late Eugene Henry Bunnell and Jessie (Gembel) Bunnell. She was a lifetime resident of CT. On March 10, 1973, she married Nunzio Picchione and enjoyed 23 years together until his death in 1996.
Bunny worked as a shipping worker in electronics manufacturing until retiring. She resided at Douglas Manor where she enjoyed playing bingo and making the daily announcements and the joke of the day.
Bunny was predeceased by 3 brothers and 2 sisters: John Bunnell, Herbert E. Bunnell, Eugene Bunnell, Anna (Bunnell) Gantic, and Marguerite (Bunnell) Champagne. She is survived by several nieces and nephews and her three dear friends, Gladys, Tammy, and Laurie Theriaque. She was also an inspiration in the lives of three young men, Luke, Ryan, and Steven Davis who maintained contact with her and showered her with affection and gifts, always remembering those important moments.
The family would like to thank the staff at Douglas Manor for their care and dedication to Bunny. A special thank you to Claire the Recreation Director at Douglas Manor for bringing so many smiles to Bunny.
