Andrea Jean Florentino

Mrs. Andrea Jean (Cassano) Florentino, 72, of Lynn passed away Sunday, January 12, 2020, after a lengthy and courageous battle with cancer. She is the cherished mother of Erik Florentino and James Hubert.

Born in Boston on May 29, 1947, Andrea was the daughter of the late Harold “Jimmy” and Anna (Jurigian) Cassano. She grew up in the Greater Boston area and was a graduate of Chelsea High School. Andrea had a calling for serving others in anyway way she could.

She was kind and generous to others, and was always willing to lend a helping hand. She worked at the Ocean Delight in Peabody for 20 years, however, her real passion was in her volunteer work with the American Red Cross and Shoe City Lions. Andrea was a lifelong communicant of St. Pius V Church and was one of their treasured Eucharistic Ministers.

Andrea leaves behind her devoted sons, Erik Florentino and his wife Stacy of Methuen, and James Hubert and his wife Heather of Manchester, NH; she was the beloved grandmother of Eriana Florentino, Dylan Hubert, and the soon to be born Jaxon Hubert; the dear “Ayee” to Luke, Kyle, and Gabrielle Surette; her best friends Elaine La Fratta and Barbara Surette; and her former husband Lawrence Florentino.
