Family & friends are invited to attend visiting hours on Thursday January 11th from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. in the Vertuccio & Smith, Home for Funerals, 773 Broadway (Rte. 107) REVERE, for Lauretta M. Salerno, who died unexpectedly on Monday, January 8th at her Revere home. Her funeral will be conducted from the funeral home following the visitation at 7:15 p.m.
Born in Boston, she lived most of her life in Revere, with a brief time in Salisbury. She was a 1969 alumna of Revere High School and soon thereafter, began work for the Mass. Eye & Ear Infirmary at Massachusetts General Hospital of Boston. Recently, for the past year, Lauretta has been working from the Quincy satellite office of the Mass. Eye and Ear Infirmary at M.G.H. She had been with the hospital for over thirty (30) years.
She was the beloved daughter of the late Daniel R. & Theresa C. (Santosca) Salerno. She is the cherished sister to Raffaele Salerno & his wife, Lorraine of Malden & Arizona & Anthony Salerno of Georgetown. She is also the devoted aunt to Melanie Salerno of Salem, Elisa St. Clair & her husband, Craig of Georgetown, Tonya Salerno & her husband, Shawn Morrissey of Medford & Ralph Salerno of Georgetown. She is the dear niece to Celeste A. Fugazzotto of Nagatuck, Ct. & the late Sister M. Anicetus, C.S.J. (Laura) & the late Rose Marie Center. She is also lovingly survived by her grand-nieces & nephews; Azalea, Karuna, Benedict & Domenic. Interment is private.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Lauretta’s family. She had such a good heart and always gave of herself to others. I knew Lauretta through my sister and worked with her at MGH over 30 years ago. She used to say I was like her little sister. Although we didn’t talk often over the years, she kept me in the loop and I always knew she was there, especially looking out for my sister, Helen. I’m so sorry for your loss. She is and will be dearly missed.
