Constance (Connie) Lozito
01/09/1931 – 08/09/2024
Connie Lozito was born in Bari, Italy. She had 2 older sisters, and her family owned a farm that produced olives and almonds outside of the town where they lived (Palo Del Colle). At age 16 Connie moved to Woodside, NY with her parents and quickly became entranced in the “American” way of life. Not long after becoming a US citizen, she started working for the Bulova Watch Company.
In the summer of 1954, at the age of 23, Connie returned to Italy and married Joseph Lozito. She then returned to New York with her new husband and two stepchildren, Maria and Carlo. In 1963, Connie and Joseph welcomed a son, James to their family. Connie happiness revolved around cooking for her family. Many of her recipes are still made today by her family.
Connie and Joseph also loved to travel. Some of the places they visited were Italy, Germany, Austria and many cruises.
Connie loved to plant flowers and vegetables in the spring and summer.
When James was in high school, Connie began working for the NYC Board of Education as a bookkeeper for the School Lunch Program. She worked in this position until she retired. Connie then took advantage of her retirement where she went to the church weekly to play cards, Atlantic City trips and other planned day trips with her friends from the neighborhood.
Connie is pre-deceased by her husband Joseph, her parents, Marta and Giacomo, and her sister, Angela. She is survived by her sister, Anna, her stepdaughter Maria Thom (Ronald), stepson Carlo Lozito (Dorothy) and son James Lozito (Valerie), her grandchildren: Joseph (Andrea), Angela, Christian, Courtney (Marco), Carl and Anthony, her great grandchildren: Joseph, Dominic and Samantha.
