Leonora DiNunzio Obituary

Leonora M. DiNunzio, 90, of Newburyport, passed away peacefully on February 20, 2023 at Anna Jaques Hospital, surrounded by her children.

In recent years she resided at Country Center for Health and Rehab, Newburyport, MA. A resident of Newburyport for 52 years, Nora along with her husband Gerry were the owners of Clipper City Ceramics. Her greatest joy was her family who she loved to gather around the table for big Italian feasts. Her cherished recipes have been passed down to her family and enjoyed to this day.
