Rosemary Gallo

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Rosemary A. Gallo, a dedicated and humble soul who touched the hearts of many throughout her blessed life. Born on May 9, 1938, in Boston, MA, Rosemary was called to her heavenly home on July 3, 2024.

Rosemary’s Catholic faith was her guiding light and the cornerstone of her existence. She attended daily Mass at the Saint Francis Chapel in Boston and the chapel at Youville Assisted Living. In her youth  she was an active member of The Daughters of the Church of the Holy Eucharist and went on many missions trips  which displayed her unwavering commitment to her Catholic faith and a testament of her selfless and caring nature.

Rosemary devoted her professional life to the healing arts as a nurse  at Boston City Hospital and Don Orione Home East Boston where she took great pleasure in providing care for those in need. In her leisure time, Rosemary enjoyed visiting relatives on holidays where she would savor a good Italian meal.

Rosemary is survived by her cousins, Clara Mottola, Edith Shaheen of Revere, Gigi Ricciardelli  of Vermont and nieces Michele Eaton and Marilyn Maher. She is preceded in death by her parents Maria and Pasquale Gallo, her sisters  Grace Newman and her husband Edward and Louise Gallo. As we mourn Rosemary's passing, we take solace in the words of the Holy Bible, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted" (Matthew 5:4).

A funeral service for Rosemary will be held Wednesday, July 10, 2024 at Paul Buonfiglio & Sons Funeral Home 128 Revere Street, Revere, MA from 10-11:30AM followed by mass at Saint Anthony Church 250 Revere Street, Revere, MA at 12:00pm.
