Obituary of Valerie Ann Tarantelli

Valerie Ann Tarantelli, 57, passed away peacefully in Amsterdam on July 21, 2019. 

Val was predeceased by her much loved parents, Lois and Peter Tarantelli, and beloved sister Chris.

Val lived, worked, and played within the Liberty family for more than 30 years. She had a great sense of humor, loved to laugh, enjoyed food, and road trips.
