Source: Legacy.com / The News-Herald, obituary for Mary Iacofano URL: https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/news-herald/name/mary-iacofano-obituary?id=14630762 Accessed: 23 April 2026 Publication note: Published by The News-Herald from 13 February to 19 February 2018. Relevant extracted text: Mary Iacofano, 95, of Euclid, died 9 February 2018 at Hospice House of the Western Reserve in Cleveland. She was born 23 October 1922 in Cleveland and had lived in Euclid for the past 69 years. She grew up in the Little Italy area of Cleveland. Mary worked the lottery at the family business, Willo Plaza Beverage. Survivors named in the obituary include children John Iacofano of Euclid, Tony (Gayle) Iacofano of Willoughby Hills, and Art (Cheryl) Iacofano of Concord Township. Grandchildren named in the obituary include Michael and John Iacofano of California, Chris (Evelyn) Iacofano of Oregon, Kim (Aaron) Wilhelm of Wickliffe, Mark (Angel) Iacofano of Concord Township, Greg (Amy) Iacofano of Girard, Kevin (Anna) Iacofano of Cincinnati, and Ashley (Michael) Georger of Painesville Township. The obituary also names her sister Angie Carrigo of Arizona and several great-grandchildren. Mary was preceded in death by her husband, Arthur Iacofano Sr.; parents, Domenic and Christina (nee Polletta) Ricciardi; and brother, Nick Ricciardi. Interpretation: This obituary directly supports Mary Ricciardi/Iacofano's death date, her marriage to Arthur Iacofano Sr., and the identification of Tony Iacofano as one of Mary and Arthur's children. It is an obituary, so family relationships are secondary but useful.
Reading notes
Things to be careful about
- Obituary relationship data is secondary but valuable for family-link corroboration.
- The obituary records Mary's parents as Domenic and Christina (nee Polletta) Ricciardi, which aligns with but refines earlier repo readings of Dominic/Domenick and Pauletta/Christina.
