Angelina (Serino) Oliver, “Angie”, “Josie,” age 92, a longtime resident of Winchester, passed away peacefully on December 23, 2022, with her family by her side.
Born in Boston, she was the youngest of 6 children, the daughter of Adama and Sabato Serino. In the late 60’s Josie moved to Winchester where she would go on to raise both of her sons in the community.
