Her voice was indeed, according to family and friends, “most operatic” even in the early days of her career. A long-standing illness came upon her and prevented her from continuing her education and her hopes of an operatic career. However, in spite of her handicap, she continued to sing for her family, friends and neighbors.
She was the beloved daughter of the late Angelo DiMonde (DiMonte) and Rosaria “Rose” (Riccio) DiMonde (DiMonte). She is the dear sister of Jean Barrett of Norwood, Pasquale Dimonte of Seabrook NH, Anna Rotondo of Saugus, Gloria M. Ferullo, Lena M.
