Filomena Capogna

Filomena Capogna was born on June 22, 1933 in Boville Ernica, Italy to parents Sabastiano & Anna. She grew up with her brother Aldo, sister Maria, and half-brother Vincenzo. Filomena came to America in 1950 after marrying her husband, Giovanni. They resided in Jamaica, Queens for 14 years, before making a home in North Massapequa for 60 years.

Filomena was married to Giovanni for 55 years, and together raised four sons. Loreto (wife Anna Maria), John (wife Patricia), Michael, and Anthony (wife Nadine). Filomena was blessed with nine grandchildren, and twelve great grandchildren.  All whom she loved dearly.

Filomena loved cooking for her family, being outside, winters in Florida, Summer barbeques at the Pocono House, and playing slot machines in Atlantic City. She will always be remembered for her strength to endure challenging times, her wit and humor, her infectious laugh, strong faith, and love of perfume, adequately named Beautiful, since that is the life she and G iovanni made together.
