Grace Salvemini, Fantastic Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother and Friend, resident of Delray Beach, Florida, (formerly from Jersey City, New Jersey), passed away on Wednesday, March 11, 2020, at age 87, after suffering a long battle with Parkinson’s and Dementia.
Grace Salvemini was married to Carmine Salvemini, who predeceased her, and is survived by her 3 children, Joseph Salvemini, (wife Dori), Teresa Salvemini and David Salvemini (wife Laura). Grace also had 5 grand-children: Vanessa Allen, Edward Daniel Allen and Meghan, Brandon and Devianne Salvemini, as well as two great grand-children: Graciella Ariana Toledo, age 11 and Carmella Sauro, age 4. Grace had numerous nieces, nephews, grand-nieces and nephews, most of whom reside in New Jersey, and she loved every one of them.
Grace Salvemini (nee Creazzo) was born in Reggio Calabria, Italy and came to America with her mom when she was just 15 years old. She met and married at age 19 and worked as a seamstress for a short time. Her most favorite past time was playing with and seeing her Great-Grandchildren; that was followed by gardening, going out to dinner and taking cruises. Grace’s smile was infectious and EVERYONE has said that she was the “kindest, nicest, warmest lady they ever met”. She will be missed beyond words by her family, friends and all who knew her.
There will be a viewing at Babione/Kraeer (east) 1100 N. Federal Highway, Boca Raton, FL 33432 (561-395-8787) on Sunday, March 15, 2020 from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm, which includes a small prayer service. Flowers and condolences are acceptable and will be donated to our local church after the service.
