Obituary of Mary Magnifico
Please share a memory of Mary to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Mary Magnifico was a woman whose warmth, love, and strength left a lasting imprint on all who had the privilege of knowing her. Born on November 1, 1928, Mary built a beautiful life centered around her greatest treasure— her family.
A devoted mother, she raised three children—Mario Parise (Cathleen), Evelyn Spano (John), and Laura Basile (Dominick)—with unwavering love and care. Her role as a grandmother was one she cherished deeply, and her grandchildren—Vincent Parise (Amy), Lauretta Hernandez (Michael), Leonard Spano (AnnMarie), Diana Judge (Jay), Francesca Basile-Wright (Matthew) and Nicholas Basile (Meaghan) were the light of her life. That light only grew brighter with the arrival of her great-grandchildren: TJ, Michael, Alyssa, Dylan, Cole, Ryder, Mia, Ava, Emma, Caroline, and Emilia.
Mary was the heart of her family—a woman of grace, generosity, and deep faith. She loved fiercely and gave selflessly. Her legacy lives on in the recipes passed down, the values she instilled, and the love she shared with all she knew.
