In loving memory of Donna Bernadette Coviello (Fariole)

June 17, 1953 - March 22, 2025

Donna passed unexpectedly at her home in Salisbury after a long battle with COPD. She is now with her Mom and Dad, forever in their embrace.

We will miss Donna as she was the "life of the party". She had the ability to bring smiles and laughter to friends, family, and strangers alike. She was the life of the party. She would talk to anyone. She was truly loved by all.

Donna is survived by her sister Mary Lou, and her brother Joseph, as well as her nieces and nephews, Alexandra, Roberto, Ashley, Al, Drea, and Annie. She was pre-deceased by her parents Eleanor and Alfred Fariole, and by her brothers Steven and Freddy Fariole.

Donna also sadly leaves behind an amazing group of caring and loving friends who had been by her side for many years. They cared for her and supported her. They laughed and cried with her, and they became her “family away from home.” We, Donna’s family, will be forever indebted to them.

Donna grew up in East Boston and graduated from East Boston High School. She lived in Revere for a time and eventually settled in Salisbury. Donna so loved living at the beach that her last request in life was for her final resting place to be on the ocean at Salisbury Beach.

To fulfill her wishes, there will be a “Celebration of Life” gathering at:

The Carousel Lounge

27 Ocean Front St, Salisbury MA

NEW DATE: OCTOBER 19, 2025 at 12:00PM

All are welcome to join in remembrance of Donna’s love of life and laughter.

Donna's amazing friends have established a GoFundMe to have a bench in Donna’s memory at the Salisbury Public Library, or Town Commons through the “Adopt-A-Bench” program in the town of Salisbury. If the fundraising goal is not met, all raised money will be donated to https://www.copdfoundation.org/
