The Rhode Island Senate has introduced a resolution, SR 962, expressing condolences on the passing of Edme Parisi, a resident of Johnston. The resolution highlights her life, including her upbringing in the Bronx, New York, her education, and her marriage to Anthony Parisi in 1954. After the tragic loss of her husband in 1968, Edme dedicated herself to raising their six children while working various jobs, including as a travel agent and a clerk for the New Rochelle Police Department, until her retirement in 2010.
The resolution acknowledges Edme Parisi's deep faith, her love for family, and her interests in classical music, gardening, and visiting museums. She is survived by her children, grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews. The Senate expresses its deepest condolences to the Parisi family and directs the Secretary of State to transmit a certified copy of the resolution to them. The resolution was introduced by Senators Dimitri, Ruggerio, Lawson, and Tikoian on April 08 and has been placed on the Senate Consent Calendar.
