Mary A. Bonanno (Arcidiacono)
Mary A. Bonanno of Doylestown died peacefully at her home on August 24, 2021, at the age of 100.
Mary was the loving wife of the late Carmen A. Bonanno and together they had shared 31 years of marriage until his death. She was also preceded in death by her son, Anthony J. Bonanno and her brother, Sebastian Arcidiacono.
Born in Philadelphia, she was the daughter of the late John Arcidiacono and Leonarda Finocchiaro Arcidiacono.
Mary graduated from South Philadelphia High School and went on to lead an over 20-year career as a clerk for the Internal Revenue Service. She was an excellent cook and an even better story teller and both these traits made her the perfect host and she treasured bringing loved ones together for family gatherings. She will be dearly missed.
