In
Memory Of
Esther Carmella Quaranda Levegnale
April 3, 1920 - January 29, 2003
Late Wednesday evening, January 29, 2003, Mrs. Esther Levegnale, wife
of Michael Levegnale and beloved mother of Esther Levegnale, died peacefully
at Waterbury Hospital. Esther was a faithful member and friend of the
National Federation of the Blind of Connecticut. For many years Esther
and Mike worked tirelessly with and for the Waterbury Chapter, rounding
up donations and organizing fund raising spaghetti suppers. She believed
in the philosophy of the National Federation of the Blind, confident in
the abilities of not only her daughter, but in the abilities of all blind
persons. Her dedication to the raising of her daughter, Esther, showed
no bounds and, through living the philosophy and encouraging her daughter
to pursue dreams, she laid the foundation for Esther's success. Esther
Senior, as she often referred to herself, was a loving, caring woman who
will be greatly missed amongst our membership. Out thoughts and prayers
go out to the family and friends she leaves behind. We dedicate this issue
of The Federationist in Connecticut in honor of her memory, her spirit,
and for her belief and dedication to our mission.
