Marianne (Caliendo) Mustio, 66, of Moon Township, PA, passed peacefully at home and comforted by her family on June 17, 2024.

Marianne died the way she lived; with grace, an enduring sense of humor, and surrounded by the love and admiration of those who knew her. Her grounded steadiness, supportive presence, and fun-loving spirit will be remembered by her children, Laura (Justin Gruneberg) Mustio and Ryan (Megan) Mustio, whom she shared with former spouse Mark Mustio; sister Angela (Susan Jernick) Caliendo; brothers Mark (Kathleen) Caliendo and David (Kathy) Caliendo; her many nieces, nephews, and cousins; and the countless beloved friends and acquaintances whose lives she touched.

She is predeceased by her parents Mal and Pete Caliendo and cousin Dale Aurilio.

Marianne was a light to all who knew her, a present and loving mother, a loyal friend, and the life of the party. She was the kind of person who could get even the most hesitant partygoer onto the dancefloor and anyone who was lucky enough to attend a Jimmy Buffett concert with her can attest to the joy and fun she effortlessly brought to life.

A passionate golfer, Marianne was a 12-time Montour Heights Country Club Champion and served the Montour Heights community with care and diligence as their first female president. Kind and patient, she was always willing to take new or younger golfers under her wing and made everyone feel welcome.

Marianne spent many years as an active member of Sharon Community Presbyterian Church and was later devoted to her church community at St. Phillips. She loved to hike and travel and filled albums with photos from her adventures in Italy, Iceland, Spain, France, Greece, and beyond. There wasn’t a birthday, Christmas, or occasion she didn’t make more special, simply by being there and being herself.

Marianne’s life and example was an incredible gift to her children and all those she considered family and her character, integrity, humor, and heart will be remembered by all who loved her.

Visitation will be from 2-4 and 6-8 PM on Thursday, June 20 at Huntsman Funeral Home & Cremation Services of Moon Township (1522 Coraopolis Heights Road), where a funeral service will be held on Friday, June 21 at 11:00 AM.
