I was so very saddened to learn of the passing of my dear friend and classmate from K thru 12 and neighbor in Peterstown. I remember playing Monopoly at her home and listening to her play" Lady of Spain" on her accordion. God Bless you, Dear Friend and your beautiful family.  May you Rest In Peace.

DEAR LISA AND FAMILY, I WAS SO SADDENED TO HEAR OF ANITA'S PASSING. I WAS A STUDENT TEACHER AT SCHOOL 18 WHEN SHE WAS A TEACHER THERE. I REMEMBER WHAT A SWEET, KIND, AND LOVELY PERSON SHE WAS. DOWN THROUGH THE YEARS WE WOULD SEE ONE ANOTHER AND CATCH UP. WHAT A GREAT LOSS!

My condolences to the Cupo family. Ms Cupo was my 5th Grade teacher at Robert Morris. She was one of the younger 
teachers at the time. Ms Cupo was very nice teacher.

Ms Cupo was very nice teacher.

Anita was such a sweet lady. I will always remember her stories about her little dog, Marcelo.

I just want to express my sympathy and prayers to the family.  It was always a pleasure to be teach with Anita at #6.

I taught kindergarten at Robert Morris in 1965-1967.  As a new teacher, Anita became a close friend and was always so sweet.  I loved having Lisa in my class, just as sweet as her mom. I was just asking a former student from Robert Morris about your mom.  May happy memories and prayers help you during this difficult time.  I share your sorrow.  Jeanne Davidson (Jeanne Hirtzel)

My condolences to the Cupo family.  Anita was a lovely and spirited Elizabeth gal and I'm blessed for having had  the opportunity to spend some time with her.  May she rest in peace with her beloved Patsy.

My condolences to the loving family & friends of Anita Cupo. I first made her acquaintance some 30+ years ago working for the Elizabeth Board of Education. Always a lovely lady, kind & demure. I would still see her often walking her little dog on Magie Ave. and am saddened to hear of her passing. May your cherished memories comfort you in this difficult time.

Her life was one of joy and serving her Family as well as her basic skills students. She was one of the most compassionate people I have ever met. And so we know the love that God has for us, and we trust that love. God is love. Those who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. We love because God first loved us.
1 John 4:16,19. Anita live in God. She will be missed. May God bless the Family.

Heartfelt sympathy to the family of a dear  friend and fellow teacher for many years.

I hope the Cupo family can find some comfort in your many special memories and the thoughts of the happy years you shared. RIP...

I worked with Anita at Lafayette School #6 in Elizabeth.  She was a kind, concerned, and outstanding educator.  My deepest sympathy to her family.

So sorry for your loss. Mrs Cupo was my teacher for the 5th & 6th grades ('73-75). She pushed us and cared for us. Many years later (2000?) I ran into her and she remembered my name, asked about my brother, father and specifically my mother. She hadn't aged one bit in the nearly 30 years. All of her students at Robert Morris were lucky to have had her. We are in her debt.  May she continue to live on through her family.

Dear Cupo Family, 
My most sincere sympathy on your great loss. 
When I meet Anita, it was a gift for me as a Principal, for my teachers, staff, parents and mostly for the children. Do not remember ever seeing her without a smile.
It was also my privilege to spend time with her outside school as a friend. She always started our conversations with, what do we need to do?, always providing me with support. 
During the loss of my father and brother, she was there for me and my family. She arrived to my home, took over and arranged the table to served visitors.
She was unique and gracious, a Lady!
Praying for her and family May God and time help you ease the pain of her loss. Blessings...
