Denise Borino-Quinn, who played the wife of a mob boss in the award-winning HBO series “The Sopranos,” has died of cancer at 46.
Borino-Quinn died Wednesday at Morristown (New Jersey) Memorial Hospital, according to Farmer Funeral Home. A funeral Mass was held Saturday.
“The Sopranos,” which ran from 1999 to 2007, told the story of mobster Tony Soprano and a colorful cast of bumbling criminals.
Borino-Quinn, who said in an interview that she got the part in a 2000 open casting call, played Ginny Sacramoni, married to Johnny Sacramoni.
An HBO character bio described Ginny as “Rubenesque.”
The actress married her late husband, Luke Quinn, in 2005.
