Iacobelli ElenaIACOBELLI, Elena - It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Elena on July 1, 2020 at the age of 88.

She is now reunited in heaven with her beloved Lidio.

Elena was the loving mother of Celeste (Mary), Silvana (Fausto Palombo) and Antonietta Berze. Cherished Nonna of Andrew (Alexandria), Alessandra (John Sollazzo), Christina (Peter Tanev), Lauren (George Economou), David (Stephanie), Adam, Eric and Katherine.

Loving “Bis Nonna” of Adrian, James, Lia, Emma, Luke, Mia, Audrey, Benedict, Isaac, Elliott, Josephine and Evelyn. She is survived by her sister Iole Ianni.

We were blessed to have had such a wonderful mother who cared and sacrificed without reservation for her family. Elena was diagnosed with Lewy Body Disease and fought with courage and resilience for many years as her energy and abilities slowly left her. The life that she led and the care and love that she showed to all will be an example for all of us and will continue to both guide and comfort us.

A special acknowledgment of appreciation from our family is extended to Elsie Palenzuela who cared and comforted our mother throughout with love and dedication for which we will be forever grateful.
