Angela Cardarelli, 71, passed away Friday, July 1, 2022 at the Miriam Hospital, surrounded by her two sons and her husband of 51 years, Jesse Cardarelli. Born in Providence, she was the daughter of the late John and Julia (Mastrostefano) and sister Valerie Mastrostefano. In addition to her husband, she is survived by two sons, Jesse Cardarelli and his wife, Charlene Wheetman, Brian Cardarelli and his wife Nicole (Pennington) and by her grandsons Jesse Jr., Ronin and Wyatt, the loves of her life. There are many cousins who will sadly miss her, including Catherine DiChiaro, her soulmate.
Angela’s legacy will be the love, compassion, caring and friendship she demonstrated through every part of her life especially in the caretaking for her father, mother and sister. She was a force to be reckoned with in the kitchen and in the garden. She created a beautiful and peaceful paradise in her yard with her incredible plantings. Angela lit any room with her wit and laughter.
Angela’s family was so wide and encompassing, including the five Romano boys for whom she nannied and for Dr. Andrew Silverman and Family for whom she worked as a secretary.
Her funeral and burial are private.
