Carolina Spadafora (née Monaco)
March 13, 1934 ~ December 6, 2024
In Loving Memory of Carolina Spadafora (née Monaco). It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Carolina Spadafora (née Monaco), a cherished member of our family and community. Carolina was born in Cellara, Cosenza, to the late Eugenio and Maria Monaco, and her life was a testament to love, family, and kindness.
She leaves behind her beloved brothers, Eduardo Monaco and Silvio (Natalina) Monaco, and is now reunited in eternal peace with her late brothers, Giuseppe Monaco and Pietro Monaco.
Carolina was the devoted wife of the late Attilio Spadafora, her soulmate of 57 wonderful years. Together, they built a loving family, raising their three children: Claudia (Joe) Benvenuto, Tony (Vicky) Spadafora, and Silvana (Joe) Perrotti. Her legacy lives on in her 10 grandchildren, who she loved with all her heart: Rinaldo Benvenuto, Luigina Benvenuto (Paul Traikos), Daniel Spadafora, Christina Benvenuto-Cornacchia (Anthony Cornacchia), Jacqueline Spadafora, Nicole (Rimon) Isha, Michael Perrotti, Andrew Perrotti (Daniela Barrera), Thomas Perrotti (Aly Signorile), and Christopher Perrotti.
Carolina’s pride and joy extended to her seven great-grandchildren, whom she adored: Katherine Benvenuto (Adriano Caponetto), Maria Benvenuto, Claudia Benvenuto, Thomas Lonsdale, Lucas Cornacchia, Bianca Benvenuto, and Maceo Isha. Carolina will be deeply missed by her extended family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. She will be remembered for her boundless love, generous spirit, and unwavering devotion to her family.
