Constance Margaret Belcastro

Constance Margaret Belcastro was a resident of Las Vegas for 51 years. She passed away on May 2, 2014 at Valley Hospital. She was born April 28, 1926 in Edgeworth, Pennsylvania. She was married for 66 years. After moving with her husband and five children at the time, they landed in Garden Grove, California, for a time, eventually settling down for good in Las Vegas, Nevada. She loved Steelers football, Celine Dion and Bette Midler. She found great comfort in the blessed Virgin and attended church often. Devoted wife and mother, Constance’s involvement with her family was the center of her life. When you went to her house, she would say, "Ok c'mon, sit down; let me make you something to eat.” The word "no" was not in her vocabulary. She always had kind words to share with the family and made friends practically everywhere she went, even in the grocery checkout line. She will be remembered for having stayed, even though she could have left, would empathize with you one moment and tell you to pray on it the next. Her faith saw her through the roughest of times, allowing her to become in her own way, steadfast, conscience, forthright and humble. Her relationships with her children were each, on an individual level making for special memories we will carry with us, here and beyond. We love you mama and as you so desired, the world will hear your goodbye... Constance was preceded in death by her husband James "Vito" Frank Belcastro and her son Jerry Lewis Belcastro. She is survived by her children Sarah Jane Sorrentino, James Frank Belcastro Jr., Joseph Daniel Belcastro, Maryann Corbo, and Robert Belcastro. Forever in Our Hearts Amalia P. Murphy Don't grieve for me now, I'm free I’m following the path God laid for me I took His hand when I heard the call I turned my back and left it all I could not stay another day To laugh, to love, to work or play Tasks left undone must stay that way I found peace at the close of day If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joys A friendship shared, a laugh a kiss O yes, these things I too will miss Be not burdened with time of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow My life's been full, I savored much Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, Don't lengthen it now, with undue grief Lift up your hearts and share with me God wanted me now, He set me free
