Maria J. Antonace
MEDINA - Maria J. Antonace, 55, passed away on August 16, 2024.
She grew up in Stow, Ohio, and was a resident of Medina for the past 20 years.
Whether celebrating family holidays, vacations, or simply talking about how the next Browns season will be, (the one they win it all), her loving and caring spirit always made every occasion special. The memories our family had with Maria will stay in our hearts forever.
Maria loved animals, mostly her cat, Dexter, and her golden retriever, Cooper. Maria worked in the restaurant business for years, before moving into the car business. She was a Finance Manager at Ken Ganley Kia, where she made lifelong friendships. Cooper often went with her and was a favorite with colleagues and customers.
Maria was kind to everyone she met and will be dearly missed by her family, friends, and colleagues.
Preceded in death by her parents, Reno and Laura Ricci; husband, Paul Antonace; brother, Mike Ricci, and brother in-law, Don Richmond, she is survived by her sisters, Theresa (Richard) Hudson, and Leesa Richmond; cousins; nieces; nephews, as well as many dear friends.
“Memories remind us that nothing lasts forever. Time is precious and should not be wasted. Enjoy life and remember, don’t count the days, make the days count.”
Friends may call from 4 - 7 PM, Tuesday, September 3, 2024, at Redmon Funeral Home, 3633 Darrow Road, Stow, OH 44224.
The family asks that donations be made in Maria’s memory to the Humane Society of Summit County, 7996 Darrow Road, Suite #30, Twinsburg, OH 44087. (REDMON, STOW, 330-688-6631)
