Geraldine D'Ambrosia Obituary
Saturday July 27, 2024
Predeceased by her beloved husband, Pasquale D'Ambrosia.
Survived by her children, Patricia Ann D'Ambrosia, Nicholas G. (Carol) D'Ambrosia, Mary (James) Messineo.
Grandchildren, Abigail, Gillian, Julia, Kristen (Trevor), Michael.
Geraldine was a kind, loving wife, mother, grandmother, faithful and accepting to all. Endearing to everyone. She loved cooking and entertaining family and friends. She loved telling jokes humoring anyone she could. Geraldine was a fierce advocate for her Autistic daughter Patricia, and her husband who had advanced hearing loss. Amongst others helping any way she could.
Geraldine was a fashion icon, her wardrobe, cosmetics were pristine. Never without her pearls and lipstick.
She adored her family and placed others happiness above hers. She will be sadly missed by all that knew her. She will be fondly remembered by all those that were privileged to be in her company.
A private interment will be held in Holy Sepulchre Cemetery at the convenience of the family.
In lieu of flowers, friends may make contributions to Arc-Monroe County the Residences, 11 Shaftsbury Rd, Rochester, NY 14610 or to The Wayne Arc, 150 Van Buren St, Newark, NY 14513 in memory of Geraldine.

No one can ever replace Gerri. She was one of a kind. There's not a comedian around who could tell a joke as well as Gerri could, She was a fantastic cook, the perfect neighbor, my mentor when my children were young and most importantly, MY FRIEND. She will always hold a special place in my heart.
