Marybell Petrosinelli Obituary
Born in Westerly, RI, MaryBell was the daughter of the late John and Rose (Bell) Keane. She lived in Pawcatuck, CT before moving to Cranston, RI fifty-five years ago. She worked in several departments of the former Old Stone Bank, as well as Guild Loan and Investment and Equi-Financial before retiring in the early 1990's. She was a volunteer at St. Ann's Church, Cranston, RI
MaryBell is survived by her loving children: Diana R. Petrosinelli, Susan M. Lynch and Debra A. Petrosinelli, all of Cranston, Linda J. Petrosinelli of Warwick, and Thomas F. Petrosinelli of West Warwick. She was the devoted Mother-in-law of Lori L.(Clark) Petrosinelli and Kevin M. Lynch of Coventry. She was the extremely proud grandmother of Kelly B. Fantozzi and her husband Joseph Jr. of West Warwick. She was overjoyed at the arrival of her great-grandson, Thomas, five weeks ago. She is also survived by two beloved brothers J. William Keane and his wife Patricia of Pawcatuck, CT and Donald E. Keane of Coventry, and her sister-in-law Florence (Florine) Michaud and her husband, William, of North Kingstown.
MaryBell devoted her life to her family. She hosted most of the holidays at her home. She loved to cook and bake, enjoyed going to bingo, the casinos, and trips to Atlantic City. Her beautiful smile will be missed by all.
Relatives and friends are invited to call at The Butterfield Funeral Home 500 Pontiac Avenue Cranston on Monday from 4-8pm. Funeral from The Butterfield Home at 8:45 on Tuesday followed by a Mass of Christian Burial in St. Ann's Church Cranston Street Cranston at 10:00am. Burial will be in St. Ann's Cemetery.

Remembering your mom and the old neighborhood when we were growing up...Ive sold my house and moved to Eden Park. I still make my Sunday gravy the way your mom taught my mom...the way your Nonna Petrosinelli taught her. Your dad fixing our old cars :-) Good memories of good people. So many memories. God bless all of Mary Bell and Franks descendants.

Tommy,
Sorry to hear about your Mom. I just found out today (email from Donny). Otherwise, I would have been at the wake. I know how much you idolized her, and how extremely proud she was of her only son. I never saw her so happy as she was on your wedding day. She will be in my thoughts.

Dear Diana, Sue, Debbie, Linda, Tom, and Kelly,
I am so sorry for your loss. I saw all your cars on Friday and I knew...did not want to intrude on a private family moment, so I said a prayer for all of you. I am so glad your mother (and your grandmother, Kelly) got to see her first great-grandchild. I know family meant everything to her, and it is a credit to your loving care that she was able to stay with you so long. I know, too, that it's never long enough, and how much you will miss her. But she is with your father now...I wish them peace, and to you, my deepest sympathy. She was a great lady. She was so proud of all of you. My thoughts and prayers are with you now and in the days ahead.
Your neighbor, Beth Capwell

Our parents teach us so much throughout the years. They want most of all for us to be good, honest adults.
