She married John Dudrick in 1974 in Hollywood, FL where she spent 50 years living in the sun, surrounded by loving friends and family. The things that brought her joy were lunches with her dear friend Bob, shopping excursions with Mariam, her favorite soap operas and most of all, DiSalvos strawberry cheesecake.

She is survived by her daughter Patricia (husband Jim), son Douglas (wife Bernadine), daughter Jane (husband David), step-son Dave (wife Alice), sisters Dolly and Maryann (husband Rich), grandchildren James (wife Taren), Allyson, Douglas, Vincenzo, and Isabella, great grandchildren Natalie, Maggie, and Rocko, nieces Michele, Bianca and Jennifer, nephews Rich Jr., great nephew Landyn, and dear friends Bob, Mariam, and Nancy.
