April 14, 1943 - August 22, 2025

Fort Myers, FL

We sadly announce the passing of Sandra J Coppolino, whose life was marked by kindness and integrity. Born and raised in Rhode Island, Sandy made her home in Fort Myers, Florida, where she lived for many years.

Dedicated to family and friends, she offered unwavering support and compassion throughout her life. Family remained the cornerstone of Sandy's life, with traditions and loving moments treasured above all. Her positive, fun-loving nature and laughter brightened the lives of those around her.

Sandra is survived by her beloved children, Anthony Coppolino, Cheryl Coppolino-Fontaine, John Coppolino and her dear sister, Patricia Holgate. She is also mourned by several grandchildren, great grandchildren and countless friends, who will forever hold her memory in their hearts.

Sandy was preceded in death by her parents, William and Julia Thornton, her sister Donna Reed, youngest son Michael Coppolino and beloved husband Gioacchino (Jack) Coppolino. Though they have gone, their love and legacy lived on through Sandy, who carried their kindness and strength with her throughout her life.

A person of faith and generosity, she has left a lasting impact on everybody that loved her. Though deeply mourned, Sandy's legacy of love and kindness continues in the hearts of all who knew her.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to a hospice of your choice, continuing their commitment to making the world better.

She will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.

Sandy was one of my best and oldest friends...60years. We worked together at DCU, enjoyed each others company and stayed in touch until the end.
God Bless Sandy

Sue Mercier, one of my best friends was Sandy. We worked together, at DCU, became friends and kept in touch
until the end. I already miss her phone
calls. She always made me laugh in spite of her condition. God Bless Sandy.
