About Lena: Lena Pambianchi was a loving wife and mother to her three beloved sons. Born and raised in New York City, she met her husband Angelo and worked for decades to provide a life and future for her three children. Ever a strong supporter of the church, she made sure to include Christ in her home in the form of multiple crucifixes, icons, statues, and sacramentals such as holy water and rosaries. In her late elderhood, when she was too unwell to attend Mass, she would use television to attend in spirit. more... less...

Lena's Memories

A fond memory, or memories, of this loving woman is seeing her passion for 'motion pictures', television, and cinema; always there to share when something enjoyable was about to air. Lina was always ready to discuss what was going to be shown on television so that her family could watch shows and films together, appreciating quiet time in the evening. Often, she would read the papers and mark the future showtimes while others were out at work or unable to make time to prepare for televised shows at home. In retirement, she devoted her time to picking the best upcoming motion pictures for her sons and grandchildren. This was always her way of helping to make sure her family could enjoy their evenings together in the living room.
