Roslyn "Roz" A. Cancemi, 76, of Niagara Falls, NY, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, December 15, 2021 in Buffalo General Hospital. Born in Niagara Falls, she was the daughter of the late Russell and Rose (Ruggirello) Murgia.
Roz attended local schools and graduated from Niagara Falls High School. She was employed as a Dental Assistant for Dr. Raimondi and Dr. DiLaura for many years until her retirement.
Roslyn was a devout Catholic and enjoyed assisting with the St. Joseph's Table, bereavement breakfasts and Bingo events at Mt. Carmel Church. She was a longtime member and former president of the Madonna Del Perpetuo Soccorso Society and the Cristoforo Columbo Society. Roslyn was also an avid bowler and bowled in several local leagues.
Roslyn was a blessing to many and enjoyed assisting the elderly. She also loved spending time with her family and friends, and always enjoyed a "night out" with them at the casino. Roslyn was the matriarch of the Murgia family and was instrumental in carrying on her family's traditions and recipes. She will be greatly missed.
