Angelina (Angie) Racano
On October 20, 2021, of Atco, NJ at age 94. Devoted nurse at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania for 40+ years. Beloved daughter of the late Anthony and Anna Racano.

Loved by many great nieces and nephews, cousins, and close friends.
Angie was an RN for over 40 years and truly never “took off her nurse’s cap,” administering to everyone in need.
She enjoyed baking for the holidays, and any occasion was made extra special with a tray of her pizzelles. She was at her happiest down the shore, doting on her family and friends while constantly cooking up meals.
As much as she relished being an aunt, she loved being a great aunt even more. Her babysitting skills were unmatched.
Angie’s hobbies included traveling, gardening, reading, crocheting, and playing cards. She enjoyed music and the theater. Trips to the casino with her sisters were also a favorite pastime.
She was a loyal parishioner at St. Edmond’s Church in South Philadelphia and later at Assumption Church (Christ the Redeemer) in Atco, NJ.
