Ruth Zeccola Obituary
Ruth B. Zeccola of Endwell, NY, left this life on June 11th, 2017 at the age of 82. She was the widow of Richard A. Zeccola and the daughter of Frank and Gertrude (Bauermeister) Bork of Erie, PA. She is survived by her five children: Mark & Marcie, Matthew & Candace, Maureen & Marc, Mike, Martin & Monica, and seven grandchildren: Abigail, Madison, Malena, Zachary, Jacob, Mitchell & Maximiliano, as well as many dear, lifelong friends. Ruth was a devoted wife for nearly fifty years, caring for Richard in health and sickness. Together they raised five rambunctious children, somehow managing the chaos. She was the epitome of motherhood; loving and selfless, doing any and all she could for her family and friends, right up until the end. To her grandchildren she was Oma, the funnest, most imaginative and warmest playmate any child could want. While we mourn her loss, we also celebrate her limitless generosity, boundless love, steely determination, great sense of humor, and positive impact she had on all our lives. A memorial wake will be held at Allen Memorial Home (511-513 E. Main St, Endicott, NY 13760) on Thursday, June 22, from 6pm to 8pm. A memorial service will be held on Friday, June 23, starting at Allen's at 9:30am for the procession, with a 10am service at St. Joseph's (207 Hayes Ave, Endicott, NY 13760). In lieu of flowers, please donate to a charity of your choice that you feel Ruth would appreciate. Thank you.
