Our deepest condolences go out towards the rest of the family. It is hard to lose someone who has been so vital to us. Our Great Nonna would always be so happy to spend any amount of time with us and would radiate her love for us all during each and every visit. Nonna has always been eager to tell us stories and share her dreams that she had for us. She wished success and happiness onto everyone. We are so grateful for the time we had with our Nonna and we will forever cherish the memories we have of her. We will remember her as the kind and beautiful woman she was. She was the sparkle of all family gatherings and will remain in our hearts forever and always. I hope we do you proud as you watch over us and watch as we flourish. Until we meet again, xoxo.
Your beloved great grandchildren,
Cristina and Lorenzo
To Cassandra and Family:
I have known you and your mom for many, many years, and there was never a time that you did not speak fondly about your grandparents. You always spoke about your grandmother (Nonna) Maria with such love and admiration. Be strong during this difficult time.
My deepest sympathies.

On behalf of my sister and I, we’d like to give our condolences and love to the rest of our family. It wasn’t easy at first hearing this news but we know she is in a better place. When we’d go see her and great Nonno she would always ask us 3 things: 1. Are u hungry? 2. Hows school/work? 3. if we had boyfriends (we’d always start laughing about it) and when we left she would always hold our hands and say be good to yourself and your mom and dad. The best memories we will always have is when we’re at the one place we all enjoyed most and that was the cottage. She would always spread laughter and fun while we were there. Whenever we saw her she would always encourage us to go to the cottage and go on boat rides, fish and swim with our cousins because she always loved to see her grandchildren happy. We know we have been loved. We are proud to have known such an empowering and loving woman throughout these years. Keep shinning bright Nonna.
Scorpios forever🕊❤️
Love your great grandchildren,
Olivia and Jessica
Nonna… I can’t believe your gone. I know you were tired. Words can’t describe how much I am going to miss you & how much I love you. If my love could have saved you you would have lived forever. Rest peacefully. Ti amo per sempre xoxoxoxo
Our deepest condolences to the SCALA family in these difficult times our thoughts and prayers are with you. Perla, Tony, Cassandra, Carmen and Fabio, thinking of you and wish we could be with you to offer comfort. Stay strong.
“In life, we loved you dearly, in death, we love you still. In our hearts you hold a place, no one else will ever fill.”
The only words I could find, even now after all these days without you. I will forever miss you and the sound of your voice. You were always there for me. Just a phone call away or a short drive.
I miss you everyday nonna.
Love you forever RIP
My condolences. If you are the Maria Ann DiScala I think you are. You are an old friend I met while in the USN stationed in Naples. I have thought of you often. We spent Christmas together in 71 in Manhattan. I ran across a letter from you and decided to try an make contact.
