May 24, 1950 ~ February 3, 2020
One year ago, to the day, Dottie was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer. That very morning at home, she passed peacefully surrounded by loved ones. Dottie grew up and attended school in Norwood, MA ultimately graduating in 1968. Freshman and Sophomore Party Committees; Junior Prom Committee, Student Council and Class officer. She was an outgoing, wonderful human being and is continued to be loved by all. It was written in her yearbook that she “Knows how to catch the eye of the males…feminine in action and dress…sets high goals for herself.” After high school, Dottie took some secondary business classes and started her lifelong career in the automotive industry. Dottie was a great office manager and ultimately comptroller who had an important role in the success of many businesses. She was an amazing person, who was always wonderful to be around. She loved to travel and saw a lot of the world. More so, she loved her family!
She is survived by her dearest mother, Mary Marzuolo. Dottie is back in the arms of her loving father in heaven, Larry Marzuolo. Her siblings meant the world to her as well, Laura Lanzoni and her husband Leo Lanzoni & little brother Larry Marzuolo, and the late Kaoru Marzuolo. Her uncles and aunts always saw her as the gem of the family. She has always cherished both of her daughters. Michelle Christa Kelley and Christa Lee Elefsiades, as well as her son in law Mike Kelley. She absolutely adored her grandchildren, Madison & Morgan Kelley and Jackson Decourcy.Her cousins have always been some of her best friends and she enjoyed and took an “own childlike” interest in her nieces and nephews. My mom’s friends and honorary family members have always surrounded her with love. Dottie’s motto was “there is always room for one more”. Heaven has one more Angel.
Visitation will be held on Friday, February 7th from 4 to 7pm at Gillooly Funeral Home, 126 Walpole St, Norwood, MA. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in her memory to The Pancreatic Cancer Society.
