Obituary For Lillian Rose Scarpinito
Lillian Rose Scarpinito of Raleigh, NC, lost her well-fought battle with brain cancer and aphasia on Thursday, August 15th 2013.
Lilly is survived by loving parents, Frank and Debbie Scarpinito (nee LaMarsh), her devoted aunts and uncles and cherished Goddaughter, Makaylah. Lilly also leaves behind an extremely large extended family. She is predeceased by her adoring maternal Grandmother, Lillian LaMarsh, her paternal Grandparents, Joe and Rose Scarpinitio.
Lillian was about to graduate from ECU with a BS in Education and a BA in English when she was diagnosed. In addition to her studies, she was student-teaching a high school honors class, tutoring students and working part time to put herself through school. Lilly's love for books and literature was surpassed only by her love of her friends and family. She loved anything Arthurian, Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, but her heart belonged to Edgar Allen Poe. A gathering of family and friends will be held on Tuesday, August 20th from 2pm to 4pm and 6pm to 9pm at the funeral home. An evening service will take place at 7:30pm to allow family and friends an opportunity to share in the great memories of Lillian.
Church service will be held at St. Francis of Assisi, 11401 Leesville Rd., Raleigh, NC 27613 with a one hour gathering prior to the 11:00 am mass.
Memorial contributions can be made in memory of Lillian to the St. Jude Foundation at www.stjude.org or by calling 800-805-5856.
