Carol Brennan Roncace passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 14. Carol was raised in Duryea, PA.

After graduating from college, she moved to Philadelphia to start her teaching career. While living in the city Carol met and married Louis, her loving husband of over 58 years.

Carol took advantage of all that the city had to offer. She and her husband were Eagles’ season ticket holders for 59 years as well as Phillies and Union fans. Not only did she love Philly sports teams, she loved the arts including the orchestra, theater, and art museum. Carol was an avid reader and participated in numerous book clubs throughout the years. She and her family spent happy summers at the Jersey shore. Carol loved her bay views in Ventnor and Somers Point.

She was the daughter of the late Paul and Ann Brennan. Carol was predeceased by her brothers, Jerome Brennan, and Paul Brennan ( sur. Claire) and sister, Linda Kashuba (sur. Stanley). She was the loving wife of Louis Roncace, adored mother of Patrick Roncace (Sandra), Amy Epstein (Neil), and Katie Roncace (Lou Picone), and proud Nana of Maxim Roncace (Morgan), Juliet Roncace, Caedyn Roncace, Avery Epstein, and Devon Epstein, brother-in-law, Phil Morris (Sue), as well as nieces and nephews.
