Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, Elenore passed into rest April 5, 2007 in San Martin, CA, at age 74. She is survived by her husband of 56 years, Julius, better known as “Rocky”; sons: Michael (Renee), Daniel (Tammy), Thomas, and Paul (Gwen); her grandchildren: Aaron, Justin, Charmaine and Julia; nephew, Rob Cuffia; niece, Loritta Johnson and her family: Kim, Kirke (Johanne), Lance, and Kirkey LaShelle, and Natazia Stolberg; extended family; Elsa, Joseph, and Carlo Audisio; cousins: Laura Smith and Joanie Singleton; her Hawaiian relatives: Auntie Frances, Huddy, Emery Lucas, Miliaulani Landgraf, and Likiliki Davis; and, of course, by her many dear life-long friends and golfing partners.
Elenore spent her life immersed in her family and their well-being. Her enthusiastic service to St. Catherine Church, participation in the Gilroy Ladies Golf Club, the Santa Teresa Women’s Golf Club, and in the family grocery business (Rocca’s Market, San Martin) spans 56 years in South Santa Clara County. She loved her family, golfing, reading, and traveling. Her cruises and excursions around the world with Rocky added to her already expansive ability to converse with nearly anyone, about anything.
Funeral services will be held at St. Catherine Church in Morgan Hill, California, on Thursday, April 12 at 2:00 pm. Burial will be at Mt. Hope Cemetery immediately following the services.
In lieu of flowers, cards, or gifts, the family requests that donations be made to the cancer organization of your choice.
