of Ava, Giavanna and Alessia. Devoted sister of Jennie Piazza, Emma Benvenuto, Margaret Licastro and the late
Michael Sanzari, Sr., Albert Angelo and Violet Westermeyer. She will be remembered for her quick sense of humor,
her traditional ravioli dinner (the size of sidewalks), her no-nonsense philosophy and her love for an occasional
cocktail. Please have a drink in her memory. Visiting will be at Wien & Wien Memorial Chapel, 402 Park Street,
Hackensack on Monday from 4-8 PM. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Jude's Children's Research
