Upon her marriage to John, the love of her life, Mary became a devoted wife and the most loving mother to her four children. She was later cherished by her daughters-in-law, son- in-law, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, neighbors and friends.
She was preceded in death by her mother, Giannina (Renzetti) Tatonetti, father Erminio Tatonetti, stepmother Annina (Franciotti) Archangel Tatonetti; and stepbrothers, Anthony and Victor Archangel.
Mary will be deeply missed by John, her husband of 61 years; children, Janet Seehafer (Russ), John (Brenda Grafeman) (former wife Peggy), Jim (Carol) and Joe (Susy); nine grandchildren; stepbrother, Carmen "Merks", nieces, nephews, extended family and countless friends.
Mary's legacy will always be most gratefully remembered by her family, her friends and her neighborhood as one where the door was always open and a delicious plate of homemade pasta, ravioli, meatballs, cutlets or bowl of Italian wedding soup was never far from hand.
