Mrs. Virginia L. “Jeanie” Marrone Glamm, 95, of State Highway 30, Perth, NY passed away peacefully on Saturday, August 22, 2020 following a brief illness.  Born in Amsterdam, NY on December 9, 1924 she was the last living child of thirteen children, of Luigi and Josephine Pellegrini Marrone.

Virginia will be remembered for her loving and joyful spirit; she also enjoyed traveling and going to the Casino.  Her greatest expression of love was always best expressed on a plate.  She enjoyed making stuffed peppers, sauce and meatballs, Italian wands (Galani) and of course, apple pie. Her greatest joy was being surrounded by her family.  Virginia will be missed by all who knew and loved her.

 

She was predeceased by her beloved son, Marc Anthony Marino in 2004, who Dick and Virginia cared for with great pride and admiration.
