Maria Pettirossi, a former elementary school teacher, died last October at the age of 92 and left part of her inheritance to Andrea Arrighetti. She had met him in 1976 at the “Fratti” school in Sesto Fiorentino. She was one of her pupils, with whom she remained in contact for several years, until her death.
In fact, after school, their bond strengthened. The two continued to meet, so much so that her former student even invited her to her wedding. “It has always been a good relationship. I forgot all the teachers. Not her, I saw her a bit like a second mother. But I would not have thought that she would leave me the inheritance ”, she told La Nazione Arrighetti.
The former teacher had feared him a couple of times, but he had always thought she was joking or that in the end she wouldn’t have done it. At his funeral, which the pupil did not miss, the carer told him that they would meet again soon. So he realized it was all true. Then came the phone call from a bank: “Mrs. Maria Pettirossi has left her life insurance policy”. The ultimate unexpected gift.
