Lana Testa Obituary
Lana Jean (Garceau) Testa, age 74, wife of David R. Testa of Mashpee, MA died Saturday July 6th, 2024 from injuries sustained in a car crash.
Lana was born in Framingham MA, daughter of the late Arthur J. Garceau and the late Angela J. (Decenzo) Garceau. She graduated from Milford High School, Class of 1967.
Lana was married to Dave "the love of her life" in 1968 and started a family.
In the 1970's Lana earned her Real Estate Broker's License, but decided to stay at home to raise her children. She began sewing dolls and making other colonial era crafts. By the mid-80's she was a well known Artisan exhibiting her whimsical seasonal creations at Craft Shows across the country.
Her works have been featured in many magazines. Lana had an eye for detail and a passion for collecting primitive antiques. Lana and Dave's "Cape Cod Retirement Home" has been featured in many magazines including "A Primitive Place", "A Simple Life" (Fall 2020) "Country Sampler", and two Judy Condon books.
Lana loved going on vacations to warm sunny destinations but mostly enjoyed spending as much time as possible with her children and grandchildren.
In addition to her loving husband of 56 years, she leaves her two "wonderful" sons: Todd D. Testa and wife Beth of Milford MA and Dustin A. Testa and wife Heather of Mendon MA; four "sweet" grandchildren: Lindsey, Lauren, Ashley, and Joe Testa. She also leaves a large extended family and many close friends around the country.
Lana was predeceased by her "loving" brother Art Garceau of Florida.
In accordance with her wishes cremation will take place. Relatives & friends are invited to extend their condolences to Lana's & David's family on Friday (August 2nd) from 3:00pm to 7:00pm at the Edwards Memorial Funeral Home, 44 Congress Street, Milford MA.

. Such a sweet caring funny lady with a personality bigger than life! And oh so talented. Her friends here on Cape Cod are heartbroken that our dear friend has been taken from us. She will live in our hearts forever.

Just a spectacular person. Full of joy. Kind. Funny. Creative. Artistic. Great mom, wife, friend. Cathy and I are heartbroken, and we wish we could do something to ease the pain her family is experiencing right now. Cherish the memories.
