Juliana Piazza, 63, of Southview, passed Wednesday, March 21, 2018, following her courageous battle with peritoneal cancer.

She was born January 9, 1955, in Wheeling, W.Va., a daughter of the late Louis and Virginia “Palermo” Bilo.

Mrs. Piazza will be remembered by many, especially her husband of 40 years, Dominic “Mick.” They were by each other’s side during a lifetime’s worth of laughs and good times.

She will be remembered by her two daughters, Christina “Chrissy” (Ryan) Robertson of Crafton and Talia “Tia” (Philip) DePasquale of Mt. Washington, for always supporting them during life’s obstacles and by her granddaughter, Madison Robertson, for showing her how fun it is to play with Tupperware while dancing to James Taylor. She will be remembered by her sister, Sylvia (Daniel) McNeil of Boynton Beach, Fla., for sharing stories and laughs that only sisters can.

Her friends will remember her for their Friday night get-togethers at El Campesino and their monthly Breakfast Club meetings. She will be remembered by those she took care of during her 35 years as a nurse at Canonsburg Hospital and Advanced Surgical Hospital in Washington. She will be remembered by many more friends and family for the caring and compassionate ways she touched their lives.

When you think of Mrs. Piazza, don’t think of the way she passed, but the way she lived: full of love and happiness, strength and hope.

Friends will be received from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m., the time of a blessing service, Saturday, March 24, in Coleman-Taylor Funeral Services, 3378 Millers Run Road, Cecil, with Father Stan Gregorek officiating. Interment will be private.
