Frances Marie Diliberto

Frances Lovoy Diliberto, 91, of Birmingham, passed away peacefully at home on December 31, 2024. She was born on July 28, 1933. Frances was a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, mother-in-law, aunt, cousin, and friend.

She was lovingly known as Mamaw, Chick, and Frannie. She was always up for a cocktail and a good time, taking pictures (even when her camera was always malfunctioning) and Sunday pasta family dinners.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Anthony and Mary Ragusa Lovoy.

She is survived by her sons, Carlo B. (Patty) Diliberto and Anthony “Tony” (Patsy) Diliberto; grandchildren, Kim (Bill) Cofield, Carla Diliberto, Tony (Amelia) Diliberto, Chris Diliberto, Justin Diliberto, and Maria Diliberto; great-grandchildren, Nicole (Jon) Piteo, and Chase Cofield; great-great grandchildren, Caden Cofield, Presley Cofield, Leo Diliberto, Hudson Piteo and Scottie Ann Piteo; numerous cousins, extended family, and friends.
