WEST SPRINGFIELD - Greta A. Breglio-Redman, 57, passed away on July 26th 2016, after a brief illness. She was surrounded by her loving family in the comfort of her home. A native of West Springfield, Greta was born on April 14th, 1959 in Springfield, Massachusetts, to Dr. Robert A. Breglio and Randi Breglio (Steen). Always the creative type, she pursued her passions and received a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts from Swain School of Design in New Bedford, MA and a Masters of Fine Arts from Parsons School of Design in New York City. She was a brilliant Costume Designer, lending her talents to The Drama Studio in Springfield and the Entertainment Department at Six Flags New England. A skilled Visual Merchandiser, she created window displays for Barneys New York, Zoot (New York), and Steiger's in Springfield.

She was a proud member of the Sons of Norway, the West Springfield Arts Council, and Trinity United Methodist Church. She is survived by her husband, Scott, of 31 years and beloved daughters Isabelle and Emma. Creativity was her life – she saw the world with a rich palette, colored with pattern and loving whimsy.
