Maria Mazarese has been battling cancer for the last four years. She was a fighter who never took no for answer when it came to stopping that fight even right up to the very end. She had encountered a number of obstacles during her journey but always remained positive and hopeful. She spent the last week in a hospice facility before passing. She left behind her daughter, her brother and sisters, mother, nieces, nephews, countless friends and other family members and her fur baby Bella. Medical expenses are expected and debts, in addition to funeral costs. We are looking for any way to best support our family with all expenses. Any contributions, in lieu of flowers, would be greatly appreciated.
