Graziella Luciano

Graziella Luciano, 92, of Deerfield Beach, Florida, passed away peacefully at her home on January 10, 2026. Born on December 29, 1933, in Ferrara, Italy, Graziella lived a life marked by faith, love, and unwavering devotion to her family and friends.

At an early age, Graziella attended a Catholic convent school in her hometown of Ferrara. Later, while working as a nanny in Rome, she met the love of her life, Antonino "Tony” Luciano. Their romance blossomed into a heartfelt proposal and a shared dream to immigrate to the United States and build a family together. Graziella and Antonino—affectionately known as “Grace” and “Nino”—were married for 45 years until his passing in 2006. Together, they raised two children, Pasquale and Antonio, in Philadelphia before relocating to Deerfield Beach, Florida, in 2000.

A devoted mother and grandmother, Graziella cherished her family above all else. She leaves behind her children, Pasquale and his wife Jennifer, and Antonio and his wife Mina; her beloved grandchildren, Leila, Rocco, Alexia, Lana, and Juliella. Her love for her family was boundless, and she took immense joy in nurturing and supporting them always.

Graziella was a woman of profound Catholic faith, known for her compassion, generosity, and quick wit—even up to her final days. She was always ready to lend a helping hand or share a clever remark that brought smiles to those around her. Her unwavering faith guided her throughout her life and led her peacefully to eternal rest.

Grace is predeceased by her beloved husband, Nino. She is survived by her children, grandchildren, and many friends and loved ones who will forever cherish her memory.

A Funeral Mass will be celebrated on Thursday, January 15, 2026, at 11:00 AM at St. Luke Catholic Church, 2892 S Congress Ave, Palm Springs, FL 33461, with Rev. Fr. Andrew Brierley presiding.
