She was born at Bronx Union Hospital on July 16, 1936 to the late Mildred and Dominic Camasto. She graduated from Evander Childs High School followed by Gibson Business School. Her most precious role throughout most of her life was as a loving and caring wife and mother. She met a young man from the neighborhood and married the love of her life, Andrew Dolce on June 15, 1957.

Camille will be remembered for her kind, sweet and caring demeanor. Camille was devoted to her family and friends and raised five children who survive her; Andrea (David Singer), Christopher (Fran), Denise (John Sortor), Paul (Susan) and Daniel (Dawn).

Nothing made her happier than spending time with family. She was a loving daughter, daughter in law, niece, cousin and friend. Camille was predeceased by her brother, Gerald.

Memory highlights include teaching her children around the dinner table a song that listed all fifty states, among other silly songs. Playing canasta with her friends Carol, Loretta and Joanne, Rose and Barbara on Tuesday nights for over 50 years. Her creative side – painting, needlework and cooking. Her beauty and grace – taking pride in wearing beautiful clothes with matching accessories.

As a young married family, Camille and Andy lived in Quantico, VA, Corona del Mer, CA, Bronx, Ithaca, NY, Lodi, NJ, Houston, TX,and finally settled in Valley Cottage for over 60 years. She also enjoyed world travels with her husband Andy.
