She helped raise 8 grandchildren and lived to see 6 great-grandchildren. Years later, after the passing of her husband and her son Joe, she returned to Italy for a year, before finally settling in Florida, where she spent the remaining years of her life near her beloved family. She will be remembered with love for her healthy sense of humor, her delicious homemade sausage, pasta and Christmas desserts, and her constant and generous devotion to her family.
