Beatrice "Bea" Colangelo

I will always remember her loving spirit , her zest for life , her genuine kindness. She is a role model to us all and I know she has inspired many , especially her children.

I was blessed to enjoy Bea's friendship through our Book Club. I nicknamed her Bubble Bea, because she was always buzzing around sharing her beautiful smile, her humor and her infectious laugh. She will remain in the hearts and memories of those whose lives she touched. May her family and friends be comforted in the love and prayers that surround her now and forever.

Bumble Bea, your wings are now those of an angel.

With Deepest Sympathy and Fond Memories,

We are deeply saddened to learn of Bea's illness and passing. We have very fond memories of our childhood friendship. The Bus stop,The playing with the neighborhood kids, riding on the back of her mini bike and lets not forget the adventures in the woods. Her family always warmly welcomed us and you are not forgotten at the sad time, as we think of each of you. May the Love you have strengthen and bless you.

With sympathy,

I had the pleasure of knowing and working with Bea while at the AmPm. Between her and Theresa we were always laughing. My thoughts and prayers are with the family,
. So sorry for your loss. I popped up that bowling alley a couple of years ago and it was like old times. Thank you for being my friend and having the fun times that we did. I celebrate all those lives you have touched. Till our paths meet again keep an eye on us all.

How blessed we were to know Bea for as long as we did...though not long enough. Some of us met at school, others got to laugh with her as a band mom, or as a preschool teacher, or through her many other talents and interests. We love you Bea - you ALWAYS were smiling and laughing and that's what we will remember most!

I'm so sorry to learn about Bea's passing. I was her 6th grade teacher at Alice Grim elementary school. I remember her infectious, bright spirit. She could bring a smile to any day. I was so pleased to meet her again when I taught her daughter, Emily in 6th grade at Paxon Hollow Middle School. She hadn't changed a bit. I'm holding the family in the Light during this incredibly difficult time. She was treasure too soon lost.

Bea was a ray of sunshine in this world and whenever I saw her I felt happy. I came to know the Iovacchini family when I moved into the neighborhood in 1978. Right away I loved them all and I have such fond memories of Bea and her energy. I am sending love and prayers for her husband , children , and all of her family and friends. I will never forget her kindness and warmth .
I will never forget her. My heart goes out to all.
