Bernadetta Carrano Obituary

Bernadetta Carrano

AGE: 84 •

Bernedetta Carrano, also known as "Bessie", passed away peacefully Monday, October 9, 2017. She was born January 7, 1933 in New York, New York.

She is survived by her "baby-sister" Fanny Levine and leaves to mourn her beloved children: Carmine, Steven, Salvatore and Guido; 12 cherished grandchildren and 3 wonderful great-grandchildren.

Bernedetta and her late husband, Carmine Julius Carrano, lived in Plainfield, N.J., where they raised their 4 sons. She was a homemaker, loved cooking, listened to Elvis or Frank Sinatra while meticulously cleaning, danced to Andrea Bocelli, enjoyed playing bingo and scratching off lottery tickets, but most of all she fiercely devoted her life to her family.
