My Grandmother, Rose M. (Pirozzi) Cancelmo just past away at age 89.
The following is the obituary. She was an amazing person whom everyone adored. I thought it would be a good idea to let people of her birth place know about it. I am proud to be Italian! Please forward any related info. Thank you.
