Angelina M. Anastasio
October 4, 1954 — May 14, 2016
Angelina M. Anastasio, 61, of Albany, passed away peacefully on Saturday, May 14, 2016.
She was born on October 4, 1954 to Antonio and Giovannina (Lombardi) D'Agostino in Roccasicura, Italy. She spent her childhood living mostly in Italy, and in 1970 she relocated with her family to the U.S. and resided in Troy, NY.
Angie was a devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend. She was known as "Nonna" to her grandchildren and "Zia" to her niece and nephews whom she doted on. She loved baking and was a wonderful cook. Angie had a wonderful sense of humor, she loved making those around her smile and laugh, she cherished her friendships and was a kind hearted and giving woman who was always willing to lend a hand to help anyone in need.
She was a charter member of the Albany Italian American Community Center and the Italian American Heritage Museum. Angie enjoyed giving back to her community, especially at All Saints Catholic Church. She always loved to participate in retreats traveling throughout U.S., Canada and France to visit various religious landmarks. Upon coming to America she worked at The Little Sisters of The Poor and valued her relationships within that community. She also worked at the Eddy Memorial.
The light and laughter she brought to the world will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege to know and love her.
Angelina is survived by her loving husband, Salvatore, of 23 years, her mother, Giovannina; her sister, Maria D'Agostino Fiset; her brother, Paul D'Agostino; her children, Benny (Deb) Anastasio, Anna (Chris) Raby, Marco Anastasio; her grandchildren, Giovanni and Bianca Anastasio; her nephews, Brian Jr. and Johnanthony Fiset; her niece, Giovanna D'Agostino; brothers and sisters-in-law, Joseph (Helen) Anastasio and Lorenzo (Antionette) Anastasio and many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
