HOLDEN – May E. (Vincent) DelSignore, 91, passed away peacefully at home on Sunday, September 2, 2012 under the loving care of her family, the staff at Visiting Angels and the staff at VNA Hospice. Her husband of 70 years and love of her life, Lieutenant Colonel Rinaldo “Buck” M. DelSignore passed away at home on Thursday, August 16th with his family also by his side.
