Obituary of Sebastiana Meriano
Sebastiana (Betty) Ragusa Meriano, age 88, of Trumbull, beloved wife of Nicholas G. Meriano, passed away peacefully on Saturday, February 4, 2023 in the comfort of her home surrounded by her loving family.

Betty met the love of her life, Nicholas G. Meriano, and came to the United States in 1959.
