Carole Louise (Santell) Bertolasio, 82 passed away peacefully on her birthday December 27th, 2024 with her family at her side. Carole was born December 27th, 1942 in Sharon, PA to Vincent and Veronica (Nashtock) Santell. After her graduation in 1962 from Sharon High School, Carole went to work for Packard Electric then Delphi Motors and retired after 35 years of service.
After retirement, Carole enjoyed many years of travel. Some of her most memorable trips were to Tucson, AZ to visit her daughter Christa, son in law Jim and grandchildren Veronica and Sydney. She also spent many hours babysitting her grandchildren Luca and Giada. Carole’s greatest joys were her grandchildren. She attended countless concerts, recitals, and athletic games with pride. Carole was also an avid pet lover and walking her Boston Terrier Murphy was one of her favorite past times.
Carole is survived by her son, Frank David Bertolasio, his wife Rachel and their two children, Luca and Giada Bertolasio, grandchildren, Veronica and Sydney Sims.
She was preceded in death by her parents, daughter, Christa Dunch Sims, brother Vincent Santell, sisters, Gloria Young and Rosana Negrea.
It was Carole’s wish to be cremated and the family plans to hold a memorial service at a later date to celebrate her life.
Arrangements entrusted to the Donaldson-Mohney Funeral Home & Crematory.
