She enjoyed cooking, Shopping, and traveling; and devoted her life to prayer and service of others. She considered her greatest achievement in life was her family and loved ones. Anyone who was fortunate enough to cross her path was greeted with a smile, a hug, and all of her love. She always Loved all, one hundred percent of the time; no matter what.
She is preceded in death by her parents; husband; sisters, Elisa George, Lena Mangialardi, Dena Ainsworth, and Rosie Richmond; her brothers, Robert Balducci, Queno Balducci, Joe Balducci, Paul Balducci, and Marshall Balducci.
