Marianne Cutro (nee Tunzi), age 88, passed away surrounded by her family on March 28, 2024. She is preceded in death by her parents, Joseph and Catherine Tunzi, and her brother, Joseph (Diane) Tunzi. Marianne leaves behind her beloved children, Ann (Michael) Doyle, Ralph (Geri) Cozzi, and Michaelene Cutro. She was the proud grandmother of Deanna (Jeffrey) Wisniewski, and Alyssa (Michael Matelski) Doyle. She was the cherished great grandmother of Anthony and Nicholas Wisniewski, and an adored aunt, cousin, friend, and sister-in-law to many. Born on March 30th, 1935, she lived a life filled with wisdom, kindness, and unwavering devotion to her loved ones.

Throughout her life, Marianne touched the hearts of all who knew her. Her life was her family; she found joy in simple moments spent together and she created cherished memories. She also enjoyed the casino and cooking, especially her pasta gravy and meatballs. Marianne will be remembered for her strength, sense of humor, good-heartedness, and infectious laugh. Her zest for life and lighthearted spirit enriched the lives of those around her, and her absence will be deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing her. May her memory be a blessing, and may we find solace in the knowledge that she is at peace, watching over us with love from above.

Memorial visitation will be held April 14 3:00pm-7:00pm with a 6:00pm service at Cooney Funeral Home located at 625 Busse Hwy. in Park Ridge. For information please call 847-685-1002 or visit www.cooneyfuneralhome.com
