Margie Haro Perniciaro O.C.D S., 94, of Arabi, Louisiana, died at 8:33 PM, on Sunday, October 6, 2019, at St. Bernard Parish Hospital, in Chalmette, Louisiana. She was surrounded by her loving family. She was born February 27, 1925, in New Orleans, Louisiana, to Estelle Marie and Henry Haro. She married the late Peter Andrew Perniciaro, Sr. on October 10, 1942. They were married for 41 years and were blessed with nine children, before he was taken from her life. She was a long-time resident of St. Bernard Parish. She is survived by seven of her nine children, Peter Perniciaro, Jr. DVM (Rebecca), Cindy Heier (Louis), Sandra Dempsey (Robert), Mark Perniciaro (the late Mary Ann Waguespack), Michael Perniciaro MD, Margie Palmeri (Mark), and Laurie Lassus (Gene). Preceding her in death were her two children, Kent and Paul Perniciaro. Margie had nine grandchildren, Jennifer, John (Lydia), Louis, Amanda, William, Katie, Andrew (Jessica), Matthew (Niki), Christian and Rachel. She was the proud great-grandmother of four, Leyla, Averi, Savannah, and Lucinda. She was a member of the St. Theresa Circle, the Prince of Peace Altar Society and Adoration Chapel, and the Secular Order of Discalced Carmelites. She was also the proud recipient of the Order of St. Louis IX Medallion. Mom, we love and miss you, but we know you will watch over us all.

Many fond memories of "Mrs. Margie" making it look so effortless with the kids and their friends constantly in and out of the house. And always found time to be involved in the infancy of St. Robert Bellarmine parish and school.
She was truly a good person.

What a wonderful person in all aspects - mother and friend. So many children, her own and countless others, passed through her life, received encouragement and a kind word and never heard a negative word.

God bless you Miss Margie---now you are with your beloved Peter.

So sorry to hear of your moms passing. I have so many memories of good times our families have spent together on Carolyn Court, Queens Court and the Stardusters. She will be missed dearly but its good to know that she has been reunited with her wonderful husband and two awesome sons.
