David Philip Famiglietti, 44, of East Hampton, formerly of Windsor Locks, entered into eternal rest following a brief and courageous battle with Appendiceal cancer on Saturday, March 11, 2023 at Hartford Hospital. He was born in Hartford on July 29, 1978, the son of Philip C. Famiglietti and Susan J. (McDowell) Famiglietti. David grew up in Windsor Locks and attended The Loomis Chaffe School in Windsor. While attending Loomis Chaffee, he was awarded the prestigious Congress/Bundestag Scholarship and spent his junior year in West Germany living with a German family. He attended Colby College in Waterville, Maine and returned to West Germany in his junior year attending the University of Tubingen as a Tufts University student for the year. After graduation from Colby College, David went to East Germany as a Fulbright Scholar teaching English in a German school. The German school requested him to remain for a second year, and were able to secure funding. He took advantage of the opportunity to visit many parts of Europe and was known for taking spontaneous trips throughout his life. He even vacationed in Cuba. Most important to David was spending time with family; he adored his nieces and nephew, and will be remembered for the numerous outings with them to Chick-fil-a and Starbucks.
