elevated gUj28 Obituary

elevated gUj28 With broken hearts and deep sorrow, we share the passing of our beloved Maria Pia Di Palma-Santoro who left this world peacefully on Friday May 30, 2025.

elevated gUj28 Maria was a beautiful soul—strong, graceful, and full of love. She had a way of lighting up every room with her warmth, her smile, and her soothing voice—a voice that brought peace, comfort, and love to everyone blessed to hear it. Her strength, kindness, and unwavering devotion to her family were the foundation of a life that touched so many.

elevated gUj28 She leaves behind her loving husband, Claudio; her devoted son, Michael (Julie) and her precious grandchildren: Patrick, Karina, Olivia, and Gio. She is also survived by her beloved brother Francesco Di Palma (Mirella) along with her adoring nieces and nephews, who brought her so much joy and pride throughout her life.

elevated gUj28 Though our hearts are shattered, we take comfort in knowing she is no longer in pain. We imagine her in heaven—rolling dice, dancing freely, basking in the sunlight, and surrounded by peace and all things pink.

elevated gUj28 We love her more than words can express and will miss her every single day. Her love will continue to guide us, her memory will live on in every smile and every kind gesture, and we will find strength in knowing she is now free—our most precious angel, watching over us from above.

elevated gUj28 Forever in our hearts, until we meet again.
