Biography:
Livia Romano (Foglia), 82, of Yonkers, passed on March 9, 2024. Livia was born on September 11, 1941 to Domenico Foglia and Rosa Marra in Serino Province of Avellino, Italy. Livia and her husband Angelo immigrated to the U.S. In 1969. Livia was a loving and dedicated mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and friend. Most of her life in both Italy and America she made her living as a seamstress. Livia found joy in many things. A big part of her joy stemmed from being with her family. Livia loved family very much, especially her grandchildren and great granddaughter. She was most happy in her kitchen being able to cook for her family. She took pride in her Italian roots and enjoyed jarring her own tomato sauce which was used to make her delicious meals for her family. She also had a quite the green thumb and spent a good amount of time in her garden harvesting loads of tomatoes and zucchini. If you showed up to her home and weren`t able to find her inside the next place you`d look would be her garden. Most summer days she could be found outside with a cup of coffee and spending time with her friends. Livia and her husband Angelo had three children; Nunzia (Nancy husband Angelo Rocchio), Giosue (Josh wife Angie Tellone) and Angelo G (wife Mariaelena Calcagni). Livia had six grandchildren Anthony and Christopher Rocchio, Maria Rocchio Dugan (husband Jordan Dugan) (Nancy); Alfonso and Dominic Romano (Josh) and Nicholas Romano (Angelo G) and a great granddaughter Olivia Dugan. Livia is predeceased by her husband, Angelo Romano. Arrangements entrusted to FLOWER FUNERAL HOME INC., 714 Yonkers Avenue, Yonkers, with visitation Thursday 4-8 pm.
