OBITUARY

Marie G. (Crisafulli) LoCicero of Burlington, formerly of Lexington, passed away June 22nd at Lahey Hospital after a brief illness. Marie was 80 years of age.

Born in Belmont, Marie was raised by her mother, Lavinia (Restuccia). Always having a passion for helping people, she worked at the Fernald School and McLean Hospital in her younger years. After graduating Belmont High School, Marie was accepted into the Malden Hospital Nursing Program. Upon graduating, she began her professional endeavors working at Winchester Hospital followed by a position at Waltham Hospital. Finally winding down her career, she retired from the Pine Knoll Nursing Home in Lexington.

In 1966, Marie married the love of her life, Louis A. LoCicero, at St. Luke’s Church in Belmont. This was the beginning of 47 years of marriage where they lovingly raised 4 children together. Marie was the anchor of the family. She was always involved in all of her children’s activities including many hours spent at the ice rink with her daughter, Susan.

Marie was a very crafty woman and used her skills as the wardrobe coordinator of the “HAYDONETTES”, a Lexington synchronized ice skating club. She also was known for making bows. When Marie retired from her career as a nurse, it was not the end but just beginning. In her new role as “Grammy”, Marie immersed herself in the raising and caring of all 7 of her grandchildren.
