ALBANY – Carmella Casullo, 95, passed away peacefully on Sunday, April 16, 2017 at St. Peter’s Hospice Inn. Born in Albany, she was the daughter of the late Philomena and Giuseppe Petrucci.
Carmella was the wife of the late Michael Casullo, Sr. for 64 years. In their time together, they created a beautiful, loving family that she cherished more than words can describe.
