Her husband of 45 years is John Grattolino.<\/p>\n<p>\nBorn in Scranton, she was the daughter of the late Ervin and Alice Calander Masker. Prior to retirement, she was employed as a medical assistant and secretary.<\/p>\n<p>\nHer belief in God guided her to be a person who loved unconditionally, show gratitude, practice patience and be a person of courage. Her final act was to be an organ donor through CORE, giving a number of people the gift of being able to overcome traumatic experiences that jeopardize their physical and mental well-being. This action on her part will allow them to continue once again productive lives.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe is survived by a large extended family.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe was preceded in death by several siblings.<\/p>\n<p>\nPrivate funeral arrangements and interment in Cathedral Cemetery are under the care and direction of the Solfanelli-Fiorillo Funeral Home Inc., 1030 N.
