Diane M. Lennon-Blasetti, age 80, of Brockton passed away on Friday, May 12th, at St. Elizabeth’s Medical Center of Boston. Born and raised in Boston, she was the daughter of the late George and Louise (Mirabello) Lennon. Diane worked for many years in the food service industry. She lived for a time in Florida before returning to Massachusetts in 2022 and settling in Brockton. Diane loved her grandchildren very much and always sent them home from visits with big bags of candy. She also enjoyed watching The Price Is Right, spending evenings playing Cribbage and cards with friends, and doing crossword puzzles.
Diane was the devoted mother of Joseph Blasetti and his wife Donna of Medford, and Cathy Blasetti of Fruitland Park, Florida, and her partner Ray Marrero. She was the loving grandmother of Brittany Blasetti, Lauren Blasetti, John Blasetti, Russel Boughner Jr. and the late Joseph Blasetti Jr. Diane was the dear sister of George "Rusty" Lennon and his late wife Karen, Thomas Lennon and his wife Joyce, Kenneth Lennon and his wife Elsa, Roberta Moscato and her husband Joseph, and Doreen Doddy and her husband Brian. She is also survived by many loving nieces and nephews. The family would like to acknowledge Diane's best friend Brenda (Remick-Blasetti). Both of them had a wonderful friendship that was built on love, trust, and respect for each other. We are so very grateful that these two women had such a beautiful friendship and were able to have the time to make many happy memories.
