What an extraordinary person Maureen was. I smile as I remember the way her fingers, adorned with her fabulous gemstone rings, would spread open as her hands swayed side to side when she expressed her emotions of joy and happiness...with that Jersey accent. Maureen had a beautiful soul and she showed that beauty to the end of her life story. She will be dearly missed. Deepest Sympathies to Vinnie, to Mark and all of Maureen's loved ones.

Mark, much to my chagrin, I never had the honor of meeting your Mother, but she had to have been a great person, because of how fine of a pillar of SA you have become.

I have all kinds of warm memories of Maureen Fusco... she and Vinnie Fusco taking me to the Texas coast in the summer with Mark, playing Frankie Valle music in the house, telling Mark to clean up after to dogs, always welcoming me into her home, and generally being a very kind person and good mother to Mark.

My heart goes out to Mark and Vinnie Fusco, and I will always remember what a good person, wife, mother and role model she was.

Dear Mark and Family. Our thoughts and prayers are going out to you and your family. Your mom was a very special lady.
