Obituary for Marge Macchia

Marge  Macchia
Immaculate “Marge” Macchia, 95, died peacefully and went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, on March 28, 2023. She was born in Brooklyn, NY to the late Anthony and Teresa Arpino. Marge worked as a phone operator, police crossing guard, and assembled parts for the lunar modules for the Apollo moon missions. The most important title she held was being a loving wife, mother and grandmother. She was a member of St. Ambrose Catholic Church and faithfully prayed her rosary each night. In her spare time Marge enjoyed crocheting and cooking. The tradition of cooking Sunday sauce and making her famous “Macchiaronis” serves as a happy memory for her family, which continues to be carried on through the generations.

Marge was predeceased by her daughter, Rachel Gill, her son, Baby Francesco Macchia, and her husband, Rocco Macchia. She is survived by her two sons, Frank (Betty) Macchia of Smithtown, N.Y., and Robert (Laura) Macchia of Vincent, Ohio. She had seven grandchildren, and sixteen great-grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
