Tina was born in New York City to immigrant parents from Northern Italy. She was the youngest of five children, consisting of three sisters and one brother. Tina has two children: Frank and Marie, two grandchildren and three great grandchildren.
Tina was employed as a seamstress in the garment industry featuring a specialty line of clothing. Tina married in 1947 to her husband, Frank, who was an electrician. She decided to become a full-time homemaker for the sake of raising her children. Her life was filled with the joy of being a mother and a wife. Her strong family values and faith were passed on to her children. She was always a true tower of strength for the entire family. Cooking was her specialty and her meatballs and pasta were second to none.
Right up until the end she was full of life and vitality and inspired those around her. Her laughter and smile is unforgettable. Tina leaves behind a legacy of love, faith and strong family values and many broken hearts. She will be greatly missed by many and all the lives she has touched.
