Antoinette DeIeso

She was predeceased by her life-long love and husband Pat (Honey), her parents Dominic and Carmela Anselmi, and her brother Gus Anselmi. She was happiest when surrounded by her daughters Donna DeGeorge and her husband Frank, Patty Weinstein and her husband Larry, Cathy Caldera and her husband Kevin and MaryBeth Stanczewski and her husband Kris. No one was a prouder grandmother than she was to Dominic, Regina, Christopher, Soleil, Victoria, Danielle, Matthew, Morgan, Elizabeth, Gregory, Rebecca, Kristian, Will, Blake and her great-grandchildren Lucas and Mia. She also leaves behind her brother and lunch-mate Tom Anselmi (Linda), her sister and confidant Jean Byrne (Mike), and sisters-in-law Ann Anselmi, Phyllis DeIeso and Jeanette Ventura.

She had great faith in God and her church and was a member of St Philomena’s Rosary Society and was a Greeter at mass for many years. She was a happy, optimistic, encouraging woman who always had a smile on her face. She loved playing cards, going to the casino, traveling, telling jokes and spending time with her “Frog” friends group. She was a friend to all and will be dearly missed.
