Obituary for Ralfena Stancato
Ralfena ''Ralfie'' Stancato
100, passed away peacefully on March 21, 2014 in her home surrounded by her family and friends in Tucson, Ariz. She was a long time resident of Massillon, Ohio, where most of her surviving family still remains. All who knew her remember that she was an excellent cook and she made a lifetime joy out of feeding those she loved and who loved her. She is perhaps most remembered for her homemade Italian bread, exquisite cookies at family gatherings and especially her famous biscotti recipe that will continue on within her family forever. Ralfie had a loving husband, John of 56 years and two children, Louise and Joe, all who have predeceased her. She is survived by four grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; two great-great-grandchildren; six maternal and numerous nieces and nephews and several god children. She had left all of us with many gifts of the heart and life and will be deeply missed. A Memorial Service to celebrate her life with all those that were touched by her loving kindness will be held at St. Mary''s Church in Massillon, April 5, 2014 at 10 a.m
