Grace DiTerlizzi 1932-2021

Grace DiTerlizzi, born to Nicola and Jenny Trotta on July 2, 1932, in Brooklyn, New York, passed away at the age of 89 on September 25 in Stuart, Florida.

Grace passed as she lived, peacefully and surrounded by her loved ones. A patient, strong and loving woman, she lived in Palm City for the last 43 years, close by to some of the many family members who loved her.  She was a talented painter and enjoyed playing golf and Mahjong with friends. She will be remembered most for the delicious meals she prepared, for the love she put into her cooking could be felt by all those who had the privilege to sit at her table.

She was preceded by her younger brother, Ralph, and is survived by her husband of 69 years, Nicholas, her four children, Jo-Ann Metzdorff (Michael), Linda Wittschen (Tom), Michael (Jodi) & Robert (Teresa), eight grandchildren, six great-grandchildren, older sister Tina, and many nieces and nephews.

She will be cremated and interred at Forest Hill Memorial Park in Palm City, FL. A memorial mass will be held at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church on Friday, October 1st at 10:00 am.
