The second of three children to Antonio and Margarita Toscanni Firpo, she was born in San Francisco on June 1, 1911, and was raised with her two brothers, Raymond and Tony, in South Stockton. After graduating from Stockton High School in 1929, she soon married Aldo DeNevi, another long-time resident, and lived virtually her entire life in the area. She bore a daughter, Margaret, who died a few days after birth in 1935, and two sons, Donald, who resides in Menlo Park and Pebble Beach and Gary, who lives with his wife in San Diego. She will be interred in the DeNevi Family Plot near her parents, brothers, and daughter in the Stockton Catholic Cemetery. Always devoted to her family, she will be remembered as a loving, cheerful and outgoing woman who befriended anyone who came in contact with her, including the many transients who knocked on her door for food on south Center Street during the late 1940's. Later, in the Morada area, her devotion to stray animals and gardens were especially inspiring. We shall not often look upon her like again. Private services have been held in Menlo Park.
