After immigrating to the U.S.A. at 11 years old, Ida has lived in West Aliquippa, PA and Center Township, PA her entire life. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother and friend who loved to cook and entertain - always hosted delicious Sunday dinners with homemade pasta and sauce. She also made the best apple pies, chocolate chips and of course, pizzelles!! Her favorite word was: “Whatever”. Ida is someone who never met a stranger! Ida had a great passion and love for living and knew how to arouse affection even in people that she knew for a short time. Everyone that came into her house was treated like family and served the best she had to offer. Along with being a housewife for many years she also enjoyed working at Jammel’s food together with her best friend Diana. She will be greatly missed. She belonged to St. Francis Cabrini Church in Center Township. Due to CoVid-19, all services will be private.
