Beverly A. (nee Campana) Viggiani, of Garrettsville, loving Sister, Aunt, Mother, Noni and Great-Noni, joined her Lord and Savior on Tuesday, April 27, 2021. She was born on June 30, 1941, in Cleveland to Charles and Gladys (nee Balzano) Campana.
Bev had many passions - cooking, cleaning (she was the white tornado), painting, and drawing, but her family and God gave her the most joy. She loved them both with all her heart. Her many nieces and nephews will remember her colorful humor and fiery spirit. Bev will also be remembered for her love of skating, dancing, and music. When she was a young girl, she would spend many an afternoon at her Uncle's skating rink in Cleveland with her friends and family. Bev loved hanging out with her older brother, Ron.
She was a homemaker first and foremost but in the early years enjoyed getting out helping ladies by selling Mary Kay Cosmetics. Bev was the Owner/Operator of Roman Pizza in Garrettsville and Hiram for 9 years, and that allowed her to talk (which she loved to do) and cook, all while still working. She loved to feed the masses - no one ever went hungry when she was around. Later, Bev went back to school and became a Nail Technician. This allowed her to follow her passion of telling stories/bragging about her family and making people laugh. In Bev's later years, she retired and enjoyed gardening, spending time with her family, friends and her faithful companion, Mia, who was always by her side.
Beverly will be deeply missed by her loving children, Michele (Brian) Scott and Michael C. (Jennifer) Viggiani; Noni to Michael (Jaime) Viggiani, Rebecca (David) Czerny, Alisa (William) Bowen and Brandon (Paige) Scott; Great-Noni to Layne and David Czerny, Adelyn and Brielle Bowen, and Lyla Viggiani; sister, Julie DiTurno, and sister-in-law, Joyce Campana.
She was preceded in death by her beloved parents; siblings, Junior Campana, Ronald Campana, Josephine (Carl) Endreola, Henrietta (Fred) Hixenbaugh, and brother-in-law, Richard DiTurno.
