With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Lucia Raniolo Basilisco of Shelby Township, MI.
Here is a glimpse of the life they lived, in their family's own remembrance.
Lucia held deeply to the Catholic faith — and was, by all accounts, loved by those who knew them best.
A life of belief is a life of quiet conversation with something larger.
