Mary Lillian (Roberge) Mastroianni, 94, of Agawam, passed away peacefully on June 21, 2019. Mary was born in Palmer, MA to Leo & Lillian Roberge. Educated in Palmer schools, Mary went on to work at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church in Springfield for over 50 years into her nineties.

A devoted wife and mother, Mary also staged church Christmas musicals, bingo night, was a soloist with the Springfield Opera and organized group trips to Italy. An avid reader, Mary enjoyed buying books at tag sales for herself and for the many children to whom she’d give them.

Sadly, along with her husband Albert of 54 years, Mary was pre- deceased by brothers Kenneth & Leo Roberge, and sisters Anne Hitchcock & Marjorie Gravel.
