Elio will be deeply missed, but his dedication to his family, his happy personality and sense of humor will be forever cherished by his family. Elio was the devoted husband of Terry Farese and father of Janice Mann & her partner Michael Bridges of Melrose, Elaine Coughlin & her husband Jack of Tampa, FL, and Carol Farese-Viola & her husband Mark of Melrose. Loving brother predeceased by Phyllis Weed, Jean Wright & Louis Farese.
