Diana P. DiMarco, passed away peacefully on October 2, 2025, at the age of 86. Born on November 6, 1938, in Brooklyn, New York, Diana was a remarkable woman whose kindness, loving and caring nature touched all who knew her.
Diana dedicated her life to her beloved husband Nicholas “Chris” DiMarco, who passed away in 2023 and her family, which she regarded as her greatest accomplishment. She was the cherished mother of Laura Caravella and her husband Joseph, Nicholas DiMarco Jr., Joseph DiMarco and his wife Lillian, and Thomas DiMarco, and his late wife Desiree Meglio. Diana's greatest joy came from her role as an adoring grandmother and great-grandmother. She was affectionately known as Nana to her nine “Favorite” grandchildren —Carolyn, Joseph, Nicholas, Maria (and her husband Austin), Christina (and her husband A.J.), Alexandria (and her husband Brian), Danielle (and her boyfriend Zachary), Victoria, and Kayla. She also took pride in being a Big Nana to her great-grandchildren — Lana, Jayden, Justin, Rylee, Chase, and Brady.
Throughout her life, Diana displayed unwavering support for her family, having significantly contributed to the family business, Stella D'Oro, for many years. Her memory will forever be cherished by those who had the pleasure of knowing her and sharing in the joyous holiday traditions, particularly the cherished Christmas Eve celebrations filled with food, presents, and countless memories.
