Denise's obituary

Denise Angiolillo, age 70, passed away suddenly on December 22nd, 2025 in her home in Prescott, Arizona.  She was born on June 30th, 1955 in Syracuse, New York to father Rocco Angiolillo and mother Jennie Grosso.

Denise was a devoted mother, proud grandmother and cherished friend to many.  A strong Christian faith was an integral part of Denise's life and she lived her faith openly, touching countless lives through her kindness, encouragement and unwavering belief in God's unconditional love.  Denise was known for her energetic personality, warm spirit and ability to make others feel seen and valued.  Her laughter, passion and faith left a lasting impression on everyone who knew her.  Denise would want to be remembered for her compassion and love for her feline friends. She also served her church community by lending her voice in leading worship.

Denise will be profoundly missed by her family, extended relatives and the many friends whose lives she touched.  Her legacy of faith, love, and joyful energy will continue to live on through those she leaves behind.

Denise is survived by her brother, John Angiolillo and wife Lou Ann, her beloved sons Aaron Bittel and wife Briele, Canaan Bittel and partner Lara, Chris Bittel and wife Katie and her absolute pride and joy - grandchildren Davianna, Asher, Genevieve, Harper and Micah.
