In addition to her husband, Richard, she was preceded in death by her son, John M. Mastromatteo; her stepson, Barry Mastromatteo; brothers: John and Robert Spackman and sisters: Margaret Spackman, Janet McEvoy, Dorothy Wile and Evelyn Nies.
She was dearly loved and will be greatly missed. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to Hospice and Community Care, PO Box 4125, Lancaster, PA 17604.

I have such warm and loving memories of your mother.  She was always funny even when she was sad she could find humor in the situation.  Know that she will be in my heart always as one of the most loveable people I had the pleasure of calling family.
