Amy Marsilio Obituary

AUSTINTOWN — Amy Ann Marsilio, 66, passed away Monday, Dec. 23, 2024, at St. Elizabeth Emergency in Austintown. 

She was born Nov. 9, 1958, in Youngstown, a daughter of the late Emilio and Nina Felice Marsilio.

She worked as a clerk with the Mahoning County Auditors and previously worked at Hills Accounts Payable.

Amy was an active member of St. Joseph Church. She loved to garden and decorate for the holidays, and enjoyed the thrill of gambling at local casinos. A particular joy was the time she spent in Chicago with her brother, Jerry, where they created lasting memories together. 

Her keen interest in politics kept her engaged with current events.

Above all, Amy loved her family deeply. She is survived by her loving sister, Jo Marie Marsilio of Austintown; brother, Jerry Marsilio of Chicago; niece, Angela (Zachary) Cain; great-niece, Kayla Cain; and great-nephew, Brody Cain.
