Maria Avila,

Asleep in the arms of our Lord Saturday, May 27, 2017.

She was born in Catania, Sicily; the beloved daughter of the late G. M. and Elena (nee: Tama') Avila. Dearest mother of Michele R. (Chuck) Niemeier and the late Robert J. Orlando. Dear mother-in-law of Kathleen Orlando. Dear Grandmother of Stephan, Maureen, Jason, Lisa, Christopher, Michael and Jamie. Great Grandmother of 13. She is also survived by Family in Italy and in England. She was a dear friend and neighbor.

Maria held the prestigious appointment of Foreign Affairs Honorary Vice Consulate to Italy at the time of her retirement. This position, that she held close to her heart helped many people and she took great pride in doing so.
A service of interment at Resurrection Cemetery will be private. The family suggest a donation be made to the Hospice of the donor's choice or to the American Cancer Society.
