Josephine DiLorenzo, 93, passed away peacefully in the comfort of her home surrounded by her family on Sunday, October 9th.
She was predeceased by her husband of 52 years, Anthony, their son Mark, and her brother Charles Tarricone.
Her survivors include son Benedict (Victoria) of Buffalo, NY; daughter JoAnne (James Randall) of Endicott, NY; daughter-in-law Renee of Wake Forest, NC; and son John (Patricia) of Suffern, NY.
Once her grandchildren were born, she was affectionately called “Grammy” and leaves behind her grandchildren Jessica (Patrick Warner) and Katie (Chris Borne), Maia and Anthony, Mark and Corey, Giancarlo and Nicoletta DiLorenzo, and a great granddaughter, Brianna Borne, whom she had hoped to meet.
Josephine worked as a cosmetologist in her father’s beauty shop, retiring early to raise her family. She was an incredible cook and baker and steadfast in her Italian traditions. We are grateful to have had her for almost 94 years.
Josephine was a talented pianist with a beautiful soprano voice. She performed with the Tri-Cities Opera, Binghamton Philharmonic Orchestra Chorus, St. Ambrose Choir, and other local musical ensembles and groups.
