After their wedding, Mary and Giuseppe moved to New York where they started their family and life together.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mary is survived by her loving husband of 70 years Giuseppe &#8220;Joseph&#8221; Gristina. She was wonderfully devoted to her two children the late Ross Gristina and his wife Josephine and her daughter Phyllis Battaglia and her late husband Ignazio (Sal).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mary was a loving Grandmother to Michael and his wife Karolina, Maria Villani and her husband Michael, Danielle Ferraioli and her husband James, and grandson Joseph Gristina. She is also survived by four great-grandchildren, Julianna, Luca, Margaux, and Leo.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The family expresses appreciation to all who comforted and cared for Mary in her last years, Antonia Vene and Orfie her devoted caregivers and Mindy Greene Bonodona her compassionate nurse. Thank you to Mary\u2019s loving sister Josephine Woodley and her husband James, her brother-in-law Dominick Gristina and his wife Josephine and her brother-in-law Piero Scatena husband of her late sister Rose.&nbsp;She is also predeceased by her beloved brothers John LoBello and Dominick LoBello. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mary&nbsp;was a parishioner of St. Catharine\u2019s RC Church in Blauvelt, New York.
