Geraldine Cozza SEAFORD - Geraldine Cozza passed away peacefully on Friday, July 4, 2008, in Lifecare at Lofland Park, Seaford of natural causes. Geraldine was born on Aug. 23, 1910, in Sicily, Italy. She came to the United States at age 10 on a boat and landed in Ellis Island, N.Y. Geraldine lived in Brooklyn N.Y. with her husband Frank Cozza and children. She moved to Sebring, Fla., due to a health condition of her son, Mario Cozza who later passed away in Florida. Geraldine and her husband left Sebring and moved to St. Petersburg, Fla. After her husband's death, she left Florida and moved to Bridgeville in 2002 with her daughter, Mary Ann O'Marrow and son-in-law Garnet O'Marrow . Geraldine only had three years of formal schooling and at the age of 14 was forced to quit school and work in the sweat factories in New York to support her mother and two sisters due to her father's untimely death. She later became a wonderful seamstress and worked out of her home in Florida. Geraldine was preceded in death by her husband, Frank Cozza; son, Mario Cozza; and daughter Judy Cozza Nocella. She leaves behind her daughter, Mary Ann O'Marrow; granddaughters, Cathy Wolf, wife of Jeff Wolf of Lancaster, Pa., April Norman, wife of Stephen Norman of Lititz, Pa., Christina Nocella Sanders of Palmaya, N.J., and Gregory Nocella of Brooklyn, N.Y.; and great-grandchildren, Brett Wolf, Angela Wolf, Bailey Norman, Ethan Norman, Riley Norman, and Kayla Sanders. Donations can be made to Delaware Hospice at 100 Patriots Way, Milford, DE 19963 in memory of Geraldine Cozza. Arrangements by Charles F. Snyder Funeral Home, 414 E. King St., Lancaster.
