Little Falls: Angela M. Taverni, age 90, a lifelong Little Falls resident, passed away peacefully with her daughter at her side on Tuesday, December 6, 2011 at Lakeside Beikirch Care Center in Brockport, NY. Angela was born in Little Falls, NY on July 19, 1921, the daughter of the late Rocco and Lucia (Volpe) Zambri. Raised and educated locally, Angela was united in marriage on January 16, 1944 to Bernard A. (Mims) Taverni at St. Joseph's Church in Little Falls. He predeceased her. Angela's sense of devotion, dignity and hard work ethic was evident in all aspects of her life. She worked for many years as a seamstress for Little Frocks Dress Shop. Her love of family, the blessings of her good friends and church could be seen in the glimmer of her eye. Her goal in life was to take care of everyone and that is what left a mark on those she loved. An exceptional cook, avid reader, sewer, knitter and a wonderful look were just a few of her special traits. Angela was a member of Holy Family Parish, Rosary Society and served as an election inspector for more than 20 years. Angela is survived by a daughter, Patricia Coon of Brockport, NY; a son, Frederick Taverni and Wife Donna of Hacketstown, NJ; grandchildren, Brian and Sara Coon of PA, Kevin and Lucy Coon of NC, Jeanelle Taverni of MO, Brandon Taverni of NJ; great grandchildren, Jacob, Joseph and Anna Coon; as well as special nieces and nephews, Robert DePiazza, Edward DePiazza and Jeanette McCafferty; many nieces, nephews and cousins and her friend Anne Watkins of SC.
