Eleanor G. Scarfogliero

Scarfogliero, Eleanor, 70, of Tampa, entered into eternal rest on June 4, 2011 after a brief but courageous battle with Leukemia. She was surrounded by her children, family members and friends. Born Eleanor Fiume in Brooklyn, New York, she moved to Tampa with her husband in 2003. She was a kind and generous person who put the needs of others ahead of her own. She was a doting grandmother who described her grandchildren as the light of her life. During her life she served as a volunteer to help emotionally handicapped children, a Sunday school teacher, a school crossing guard and in many other capacities for which her church or community were in need. Her compassion was limitless and her love of family boundless. She was preceded in death by her husband of 47 years Gennaro and son Michael. Left to remember her are her son Gennaro, his wife Alexis, her daughter Angela Sawyer and her husband David. Grandchildren Christopher, Mary and Gennaro Nikos, Sisters Eva Daledda and Theresa DiFilippo, Brother Peter Fiume and countless nephews, nieces, cousins and friends. She left our company, but will never leave our hearts. Viewing Wednesday and Thursday 4-9 pm at the funeral home with funeral mass Friday 10:30 am at St. Paul Catholic Church, Tampa, Fl.
