Santa Girard

Santa Marie Girard passed away peacefully on June 23, 2025, in Stamford, CT. Born in Greenwich on September 2, 1933, to the late John and Maggie (D'Andrea) Gangi.

She graduated high school and dedicated her professional life as an executive secretary at Pitney Bowes, where she was known for her hard work and commitment. Santa was a traveler at heart, always eager to explore new places and create memories with family and friends. She enjoyed many days on the golf course especially at Hubbard Heights, where she shared laughter and made lasting friendships.

Santa is survived by her loving brother Ralph Gangi, her cherished niece Michelle Saunders, and her nephews Marc Gangi, John Gangi and Rafe Gangi. She will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.

Besides her parents, Santa was predeceased by her husband Joseph Girard and brother Vincent Gangi.

Friends and family are invited to join us for Calling Hours at the Lacerenza Macari Family Funeral Home on Monday, June 30, 2025, from 10-11 am. A Mass will be held at St. Catherine of Siena Church that same day at 12:00 pm, followed by a burial at St. Mary Cemetery.
