She will be greatly missed and always remembered by her children Filippina (Paul) and Vincenzina (Mike). She was very proud of her four grandchildren Michael, Robert, Julia and Ben and two great grandchildren Gia Audry and Paolo Luca. She will also be remembered by her surviving sister Concetta as well as her nieces and nephews. She will be missed by everyone she associated with.
