Carole Ann Steffano, 71, passed away on Monday, August 31, 2015. Born in Manchester, she was daughter to Alice Gagnon. She enjoyed traveling, day trips and new dining experiences with her dear family and friends. During Carole's residence in Maine, she became a self-proclaimed "Sea-glassologist," a favorite pastime. Carole led her life with a sense of humor and a 'rolling with the punches' attitude. She was a cherished mother to Kevin and Denise and mother-in-law to Mark and Lisa, a devoted grandmother, a thoughtful sister and adored aunt to her much-loved nieces and nephews. She is survived by her brothers, Norman, Robert and Donald Gagnon. May she rest in peace with her mother and beloved sister Jeanette. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Thursday, September 3rd, at St. Bridget Church, 80 Main St., Manchester at 11:00 a.m. Family and friends may call at the John F. Tierney Funeral Home, 219 West Center St., Manchester on Wednesday from 4:00-7:00. Burial will be at the convenience of the family. For online condolences please visit www.tierneyfuneralhome.com.
