Marybeth you’ve been in Ed and my prayers ever since you were diagnosed. We continue to pray for you. We love you so much and your wonderful faith is so admired. I know you’re already a saint. Will pray always for you. Miss talking to you. God Bless you to the splendid journey to our Lord and Savior. You will be missed but forever loved and in our hearts. RIP
Love you, Evamarie and Ed Gere

Feeling blessed for the God-incidence that allowed my path to cross with Mrs. Deblasio’s. While a former student of hers, I still hold many of the teachings she shared dearly and am grateful to have known someone who is such a true embodiment of a kind, joyful, gracious, and loving spirit.

MB,
You were an admired leader, a cherished colleague, and a dear friend.  I could never thank you enough for all you had done for my family and I.  Godspeed and God bless you. 
Much Love,
Mike Santos & Family

Mrs Diblasio was an angel on earth. Always so kind. She made the trip to Carnegie Hall to show support for my daughter Kristen when she heard she would be playing piano there.  We will never forget her kindness and big heart.

I am shocked and saddened to hear about the passing of Marybeth. I was her neighbor for many years. She was such a kind, sweet soul. She was like a ray of sunshine, always smiling and saying hello when I would see her outside or at the gym.  I would like to send my condolences to Dominick, Anna and her extended family, friends and Donovan family.  I am praying for you all during this difficult time. 

                                                                          Dawn Taylor

Marybeth will continue to inspire me to be a better teacher, mother, friend, human.  Her ability to put her agenda aside and listen, and comfort others was unparalleled.   Courage, faith, grace, patience, kindness, her love of God, the Catholic Faith,  students n family will be remembered. Thank you Marybeth for your example and friendship.  You will be truly missed.

Mrs. DeBlasio was my religion teacher for two years during my time at Monsignor Donovan. She always encouraged me and the other students to be the best versions of ourselves. I am not religious anymore, but she was the embodiment of a good person and made me have faith in humanity. I am sending her and her family my deepest condolences and am incredibly grateful for the role she played in my life.

Mrs. Deblasio was one of the kindest souls to have walked this earth. I still have my prayer journal I made in her class. The way she spoke about the first time she met her husband and her love for him, is a memory I still use as a tool of measurement when reflecting on my relationships with others. She was someone you could turn to when you were feeling lost. One retreat I went on with her, she had members of each students family write a letter to you, I was so worried my family wouldn’t have followed the assignment, but she made sure there was a letter from everyone in my family as well as a letter from her. After hurricane Sandy, she encouraged me to speak at the church about my experiences in front of my classmates. She was there for her students and pushed you when you needed it or hold your hand and guide you through it. Her classes taught values that I still hold close to my core today. The world is a little less bright with her being gone but I know she rests in peace with God.

Mrs.DeBlasio asked us  students in world religion what reminds you of God? As we we were answering she said when the rays of the sun peak through the clouds. Now when I see that I think of her and now it’s like her saying hello from heaven. Bless her soul she was a sweet woman who loved what she taught and it showed.

Mrs. DeBlasio was my teacher many years ago, but still to this day her teachings reach deep to my very being. Mrs. DeBlasio opened my eyes and my heart in many ways, and I know her compassion and understanding touched many people.  I still remember how she greeted every class as her “dear ones” and   how deeply and genuinely she cared for each of her students. She will be remembered as one of the best teachers I’ve had - a truly and absolutely pure and kind soul. Rest in peace Mrs. DeBlasio. Your words and teachings will live on with your memory.

MaryBeth was a wonderful person and a fabulous teacher.  I was privileged to work with her at Sisters Academy.   My prayers are with Dominic and Anna - peace be yours.   MaryBeth taught us all many important lessons.   May she Rest In Peace.

Dear Dominick, Anna, Ryan and extended family,
   Our deepest sympathies go out to you at this time of great loss. MaryBeth has been a loving presence in our lives for many many years beginning with the friendship of Tommy and Anna all the way to present days as we enjoyed many a day walking together on Island Heights boardwalk., and sharing in the joy and appreciation of our loving family and felt so blessed.  She was always an inspiration to me and a dear friend who I loved dearly. Her gentle smile and demeanor was always a warming presence.
Love, John and Betsy Sarris

Condolences to the family and friends of Marybeth.
God bless you all. 

Rest in peace Mrs. Deblasio. 

Dawn, Dennis and Liam Smith DC class of 2024

The world was a richer place with MaryBeth  in it. Scores of memories surface of shared school days  and, I’d say, most vivid ones of faculty retreats. Her calm demeanor softened stressful occasions and her pure joy in service to all defines her too brief life.

To Dominick.Anna, Ryan, and Maribeth and family
Heartfelt condolence 
    Love and Hugs,
Theresa Walsh Case and Nathan Case
