Stephanie Cincotta Obituary
First and foremost Stephanie was a child of God, who counted on her faith to help her through life. She married Serge L. Cincotta in 1948. In 1968 Stephanie became a Marine Corp Momma. In 1969 her title was extended to Gold Star Mother compliments of her son, Tommy. Stephanie stepped up as the family anchor. When the sea was churning, the boat was drifting, she was the calm resilient force that held everything in place. Stephanie was a strong and kind woman who reflected another time. She valued the people around her. She was a lady who seemed to navigate by the Spirit of God within her, rather than what anyone presented to her. She was savvy, soaking up the lessons of the past to run a successful business (Alioto-Lazio Fish Co.) in a place that spits out the weak and unprepared. She was a good person, the kind you could rely on – salt of the sea, a beam of light on a foggy night.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Tom & Annetta Lazio; her loving husband; her son, PFC Thomas A. Cincotta (Silver Star Recipient); her brother, Lorenzo Lazio and one grandson. She is Survived by her loving children Mary Ann (Robert) Shepherd, Stephanie T. (Eric) Jorgensen, Annette (Thomas) Traverso, S. Joseph (Rebecca) and Angela; 9 grandchildren, 5 great grandchildren and her brother, Lawrence Lazio and brother-in-law, Antone G. Cincotta, Jr. along with nieces and nephews. Finally, she is survived by her loving sons of USMC Lima Unit 3/9.
Rosary service 7 P.M on Tuesday, January 7th, 2020 followed by Funeral Mass Wednesday the 8th at 10 A.M. both at Saint Sebastian Catholic Church 373 Bon Air, Greenbrae, Ca 94904.
In lieu of flowers, mom preferred Spiritual Bouquets or donations to either: St. Vincent de Paul dining room in San Rafael or the Shrine of St. Jude in San Francisco.

I have a huge soft spot in my heart for this wonderful woman and appreciate how she kept in touch and always kept our family history alive. My hope is that before she passed, she saw some satisfaction in her long battle to save the history of the pier. I know she leaves a legacy of love for family and passion for justice. I am sorry to not have known before now of her death and hope that you all will keep in touch with your Dallas family.
with love,

Angela was very kind to the Catholic TV MASS. She wrote regularly and would often send her gratitude for the service since she was no longer able to attend her parish Church.

My thoughts and prayers for Mom Cincotta and her family. She shared her boundless love and enormous faith with the men of Lima 3/9, giving so much to the Marines and Corpsman who served with her beloved Tommy. We are all better for her presence in our lives.
God enfold her in your arms and give her comfort and peace.

The hearts she touched grow bright, for we have seen true compassion and love. She leaves behind a Matriarch's legacy and now it is time to rest.
