Ms. Schiavo absolutely loved people. Perfect strangers one minute were friends the next. She was always known for her larger than life, sparkling personality and she was a ray of sunshine to everyone she met. She was always extremely complimentary and truly reveled in making others feel good about themselves. She had a keen eye for fashion and always appeared so put together but at the same time she made it look completely effortless. She loved to travel and was blessed to see many parts of the world. She especially loved to cruise and enjoyed the finer things in life.
A celebration of life and interment will take place on Saturday, September 14, 2019 at Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church in North Myrtle
