Loving Mommy of Maria (Frank) Ciampa and Melissa (David) Dattilo-Kidd. The most wonderful Nonna of Massimo (Angela), Bianca, Frankie, Sante and Roman. Cherished daughter of the late Carmine (1978) and surviving Laura Borrelli (nee Spagnuolo). Adored sister of Aldo (Nives) Borrelli, Linda (Dr. Robert) De Rose and Diana (Dr. Franco) Coscarella. Daughter-in-law of the late Giovanni and Mariuccia Dattilo. Sister-in-law of Dr. Joseph (Ana) Dattilo, Catherine (Cesare) Petretta, Maria Dattilo (Chris Woods), and Sarina Dattilo.

She will be deeply missed by many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

Ornella was one of the most loving, caring, and supportive women in the world. Her kind, loving heart was a testament of how much she loved her family. She was always laughing with her contagious smile that brightened every room and surely everyone’s heart. Ornella loved talking on the phone and we all got a daily treat of her calls and her number one on her speed dial was her mom. We will all definitely miss her daily updates.
