Mary Angeline Scaringe (née Pensiero), lovingly known as “Angie,” passed away peacefully surrounded by family at her home in Orangeburg, New York, on July 23, 2025, at the age of 97.
Born on October 5, 1927, in the coalmining town of McDonaldton, Pennsylvania, Angie lived a life devoted to family and an open door to all. She was the beloved wife of the late James A. Scaringe, with whom she shared a life for 60 years.
Angie is survived by her cherished sister, Frances Sasso (99); her devoted sons James (Mary), John (Christine), and Jerry; and her treasured granddaughters, Danielle and Gabriella. She was predeceased by her son Joseph and her brothers Frank, Tony, and Daniel.
Angie will be remembered for the way she brought people together, especially around the dinner table. A true Italian mother, she was a wonderful cook who took joy in feeding both family and friends, always with a smile and a seat ready at the table. Her home was a place where everyone felt welcomed.
A fixture in the stands, Angie rarely missed an athletic event, always cheering on her sons alongside her sister Fran. Her support for her boys was unwavering.
She was a faithful parishioner of St. Catherine’s Church in Blauvelt, New York, and lived her Catholic faith with generosity and kindness. Angie lived for her family and for those around her. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, friend, and neighbor. Her legacy lives on in the lives she touched, the traditions she passed down, and the family who will forever hold her close in their hearts.

From childhood on, being welcomed into the Scaringe household by Mrs. Scaringe and her husband always made me feel like a true member of the family. My wife, Nancy felt exactly the same way. Knowing them and their family has been one of the greatest blessings of my life. I’ll forever treasure all the wonderful times we’ve shared. Rest in peace, “Angie.” ❤️
As an Usher and now a Lector at St. Catharines Church, I had the honor of knowing Mrs. Scringe…I always made it a point to say hello to her as I was getting ready for Church…Her greetings to me were always so warm and thoughtful…May she live in every lasting peace…
Love you Mrs. Scringe…✝️

I must say one of the greatest familys who touched down in Orangetown. Jim Sr was a legend to many football players in orangetown. He was a church usher and always waited until last to lock arms with his bride and walk down to receive the body of Christ together, That sticks out in my mind forever.. Class act kind and loving wife.. I’m sure she can’t wait to see Guns. God bless
Great family can’t tell you how much they gave back
Mary, Jim Sr, Joe will be with the lord.. God bless the Scaringe Family
