It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Francesca Cerroni, who passed away surrounded by her loving family on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, at the age of 83.
Beloved wife of 59 years to Giovanni Cerroni.
Loving mother of Antonella (Enrico) Notte, Louie (Teresa) Cerroni, and Daniel (Michelle) Cerroni.
Proud Nonna of Gianluca, Sabrina, Christian, Olivia, and Alessia.
Dear sister of Tony (Shari) and Jim (Cindy) Tempesta. Loving sister-in-law of Teresa (late Antonio) Carlini.
She will be sadly missed by her many nieces, nephews, and extended family.
