Age 85, our beloved mother, grandmother and great- grandmother was welcomed by God into His eternal home on October 8, 2015. She passed peacefully surrounded by her family. The daughter of the late Gilberto Casasanta and Angela DeChellis Casasanta, Maria was born on December 14, 1929, in the village of Pacentro, L'Aquila, Italy.

A devoted mother, Maria leaves behind four loving children who will miss her greatly, Angela DiNunno and Sam Calcaterra both of McKees Rocks, Pascual Calcaterra and Nancy Calcaterra Kennedy (Charley) of Moon Township.
