Elizabeth DeMartino Obituary
After welcoming two children of her own in 1988 and 1993 with her husband, she went back to school to become a Teaching Assistant. She brightened the days of students at Bardonia Elementary School, where she was known affectionately as "Mrs. D".
Elizabeth prioritized her family, loving them unconditionally and without limit- yet she still had kindness and generosity to spare for everyone. Family, friends and co-workers would often ask "how are you always so happy, are you really?" and if they knew her long enough they understood, in no uncertain whimsical terms: "of Corsica", that's just how she was made.
Elizabeth passed away peacefully in bed on September 2, 2025, being held tightly by loved ones.
She is survived by her loving family: husband Robert, son Peter, daughter Hannah and grandson August as well as her brother Robert and sister Patricia
Wake services will be held at Wyman-Fisher Funeral Home in Pearl River on Sunday, September 7th from 2-4 PM and 7-9 PM

I will always remember the days we would take the boys to the park and float paper boats down the stream. You always had crazy names for me. Your life ended to soon and I will always keep you my heart. Now you can rest with God heaven.
