Cathy Ciacco Obituary
Born on September 6, 1951, Cathy devoted her life to caring for others, both professionally and personally. As a registered nurse and later a school nurse, she brought comfort, safety, and compassion to countless lives over the course of her career. But Cathy wasn't just kind-she was fierce and funny, with a quick wit and a fire in her soul that made her unforgettable.
Cathy is survived by her loving daughter Samantha, her devoted son Daniel, and her cherished granddaughter Danielle, all of whom carry forward her strength, humor, and heart.
She is now reunited in peace with her beloved son Brian, her dear parents Jack and Sophie Eskanazy, and her brother Robert Eskanazy, whom she missed dearly.
Cathy's legacy is one of fierce love, unwavering dedication, and healing through laughter. She made people feel seen, safe, and often smiled-even in difficult moments. Her memory will forever be a source of strength and inspiration to those who knew her.
She was deeply loved, profoundly respected, and will be missed more than words can express. To send flowers to the family of Cathy, please visit our floral store.
