Nina Morello

Nina Ann LaFauci Morello,  71,  said goodbye to the world that adored her so dearly Tuesday, February 9th, 2021. Surrounded by her loving children. Saying goodbye as a family, as she would have wanted.

She leaves behind a daughter Lisa Odle, her husband of 30 years Mike, a daughter Jennifer Larios and spouse of 3 years Mike Lowe and a son John Morello and his wife of 15 years Darleen.

Nina, a Boston girl growing up in California...a daughter to Joseph and Nancy LaFauci...also raised by two of her favorite people, whom she would talk about dearly every day, DeeDee and DooDoo...who showed her a way of life that she would express to her children constantly. Married almost 50 years to Salvatore, became two of the greatest grandparents to their seven grandchildren.  Steven, Mark, Ryanne, Natalie, Layla, Joseph and Emma.  They were her world as she would fight someone to help with changing a diaper, a first bath time, make an after school snack, making her magic soup for sick days and would always have a hidden couple pieces of chocolate for her babies so the parents would not find out. The kids adored their Gambi/Ma.

We will always remember OUR Gambi/Ma, her endless love, her need to always help, her tiny quirks of cleanliness, her compulsive need for tupperware, her one and only one bottle of O’douls daily, her love for her puppy Jack and just her being her.  You will be missed, but celebrated even more.
