Concetta was an elementary school teacher. She shared the joy of learning with her children and grandchildren. She taught us to enjoy nature, gardening, cooking, picnics and a cup of tea around the kitchen table after dinner. We learned to be grateful for small things. Our family will remember her love of reading, quilting, birds, flowers, jigsaw puzzles and each of us.
Our beautiful Mother was independent, intelligent, resilient, tireless and strong. She was observant, preferring the background. Her generosity, curiosity and her selfless nature will always resonate in our lives.
A dedicated parishioner of Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church for 40 years, Concetta was devout, faithful and humble. She gave of her time serving as a Eucharistic Minister, Parish Council Member, Sunday School Teacher, Women’s Club Member and Helping Hands Volunteer.
Concetta DeLuca has touched so many in her lifetime. Our family is comforted knowing that anyone who has given love will live on forever in others hearts.
