Mary Jane (Greco) Coscarelli

Mary Jane Coscarelli, peacefully passed away in her home with her family by her side on Thursday, July 7, 2016, after a 2 1/2 year illness. She was born June 28, 1922. Her wonderful eight children and caregivers took care of Mary Jane in her home. Mary Jane worked at Alcoa as a secretary. Mary Jane used her artistic talent to draw plans for the kitchens that her husband built for Ralph's Cabinet Shop. Mary Jane loved fixing baby dolls, crafts, antiques, baking, bingo, and cooking. Mary Jane was a wonderful, loving mother to all of her eight children, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, and grandchildren. Mary Jane always welcomed visits from family members, and loved having everyone for dinner no matter what day of the week or what time of the day. You could always find Mary Jane making something delicious when you stopped by. Her bread was everyone's favorite. Mary Jane won first prize in a baking contest sponsored by the Valley News Dispatch for her zucchini pie in 1996. Mary Jane will be dearly missed because she was what held the family together with her sweetness, her caring, her unselfishness, and her beautiful smile. Her children and her husband were her whole life. Mary Jane was preceded in death by her parents, Daniel and Katherine Greco; her husband, Ralph; her sister, Diana; and an infant brother, Daniel.
