Immaculata (Mac) Perrotta was born in Brooklyn to Giuseppe and Giovanina Villani on July 26, 1932. She grew up with two older brothers, Rocco and Salvatore, whom she loved and admired.

On November 15, 1952, Immaculata married Mario Perrotta, the love of her life, and she was his loving wife for nearly 74 years. Immaculata was the devoted mother of Teresa, Joanne Foster (Keith), Marie O’Donnell (Kevin), Carla Richards (Michael), Lisa Berning (John) and Michael (Nancy). Immaculata is also survived by 14 adoring grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren. Immaculata’s family was large, but she always made room for so many others who enjoyed her hospitality, welcoming nature and delicious food.

Immaculata was a devout woman of faith and a proud American. She was a humble woman who lived her life with great dignity, genuine grace, and a willingness to help others. Immaculata was a role model and inspiration to many.
