Virginia "Rae" DiBenedetto passed away on September 21, 2020 at the age of 91 years young.  Born in Brooklyn, NY, she was married to her loving husband Charlie for 59 years and raised 4 adoring children. Virginia had a successful career as a realtor in Brooklyn for many years. She lived her life spreading kindness, empathy, and joy to all who knew her. Her greatest joys were her children and grandchildren. She was their sun and they were her "shining stars." Virginia leaves behind her husband Charlie, her sister June, son Charles and his wife Janet, son Nicholas and Theresa, and daughter Joan and her husband, James, as well as her beautiful grandchildren and great-grandchildren: Scott, Liz, Taryn, Scott, Evan, Charlotte, James, Nicholas, Charlotte, Jamie, Jessica, Lorena, Ashton, Cambria, Hendrix, and Harlowe. Her son "Jimmy-Boy" had preceded her in death. She will always be remembered by those who loved and knew her as a strong, courageous woman and source of strength for her family. She has left us all a legacy of love. May she rest in eternal peace.
