Diana Mastrangelo Obituary
After a life dedicated to her family, friends, and community, Diana Rose (Easton) Mastrangelo, age 78 of Storrs Mansfield, CT passed away peacefully in her home on July 7th, 2023.
Diana was born on October 27, 1944, in Willimantic, CT and attended Hopkins Academy in Hadley, MA. She settled in Storrs Mansfield, CT and worked at the Mansfield State Training School and the local A&P market where she eventually retired as a deli manager.
Diana was a devoted wife, friend, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Diana is survived by her beloved husband of 59 years, Vincent Mastrangelo, their children Mark and Annette Mastrangelo, her grandchildren Lena Dwelley, Crystal Mills, Rory Ely, Adam, Amber, and Justin Emmons, Joel Kennedy, James Milam III, Samuel Keene J.R., and her great-grandsons Tyler and Aidan Emmons. Diana was predeceased by her parents Kenneth Easton, Bertha West, and step-father Roger West; siblings Cleo LeClair, Martha West, Donna Easton, Roger West J.R. She is survived by her siblings Margaret Paulson, Gail Pearl, Phillis O’rmand, and Ana LaFlame, Edward West, Bill West, Robert West, and Philip West. Diana's family was her pride and joy, and she cherished every moment spent with them.
She loved nature, which was evident in her artwork which she often made and shared with family and friends. She spent most of her retirement days on the deck bathing in the sun, tending to her flowers, and bird watching. Diana loved dressing to the 9's in her fancy outfits, hats, and jewelry. Her sense of fashion was second only to her sense of humor, and she had a knack for making those around her smile and laugh. Her faith was very important to her and she enjoyed reading scriptures with her bible group.
Diana was an excellent cook and enjoyed showing her love through cooking for her family and friends. Her interests also included watching her favorite TV shows, and socializing. She was a people person through and through, always eager to lend an ear or offer advice and a helping hand. She looked forward to her weekly visits with her granddaughters Crystal and Lena who she raised from an early age, a tradition that brought her immense joy and pride.
Diana was known for her generous spirit and selfless nature. She gave freely of her time and resources, always putting others before herself. Her love and kindness left a lasting impact on everyone she met, and her memory will continue to inspire those who knew her.
In her passing, Diana leaves behind a legacy of love, generosity, and selflessness. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her spirit will live on in the hearts of those she touched, and her influence will continue to be felt in the generations to come. While we mourn her loss, we also celebrate the beautiful life she lived and the precious memories she left behind.
Rest in peace, Diana Rose Mastrangelo. Your light will continue to shine in our hearts, and your memory will forever be a reminder of the beauty of a life well-lived.
