Casmento March 6, 1942 - November 22, 2024 It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of Rose T. Casmento, a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, who peacefully left us on November 22, 2024, at the age of 82. Rose was a strong, loving, and dedicated woman whose unwavering commitment to her family was an inspiration to all who knew her. Rose cherished family gatherings, where her warmth and laughter brought joy to every occasion. She was predeceased by her parents Rose (nee Costanzo) and Thomas Zacco; her sisters Theresa Mecca and her husband Vito and Paula Zacco; and her nephew Antonio DiGradio. She is survived by her two beloved sons, Clifford Casmento and his wife Donna, and Thomas Casmento, her two granddaughters, Danielle and Deanna, and her three great-grandchildren, Isabella, LJ and Hanna; her brothers John Zacco and Debra Ryan, and Thomas Zacco. Each of them held a special place in her heart. Rose is remembered for her loving spirit, sense of humor, stunning beauty, elegant cream-puffs, fashion forward style of dress and steadfast dedication to her family. She also loved chachkas... lots n lots of chachkas. Her love will live on forever through us, and her legacy will continue to inspire us all. A funeral Mass will be held in her honor on Saturday, December 7th, 2024 at 10am at St. Thomas the Apostle Roman Catholic Church, 5635 Berkshire Valley Road, Oak Ridge, NJ 07438. All are welcome to attend and the service will be live streamed for those who cannot attend. (www.facebook.com/ststhomasjohn or https://venue.streamspot.com/71cd47d1).

We laughed and cried along the way and through awareness... we once again grew up together. Donation link: https://fundraise.givesmart.com/f/550e/n?vid=1a2cj0 Rest in peace mama.
