Sandra M. (Ceparski) Scaccia, 79, of Liverpool, NY passed away on Wednesday. She was born in Syracuse, NY, the daughter of the late John and Lottie (Pilat) Ceparski. Sandra was a trailblazer, becoming one of the first female managers at Raymour & Flanigan Furniture. Her tenacity and determination were reflected not only in her professional achievements but also in her role as a nurturing caregiver. She raised six children, three of her own and three of her grandchildren, filling their lives with love, guidance, and endless devotion.

She was devoted to her husband of over 60 years, sharing a bond that was a cornerstone of her life. Together, they built a family and a legacy of love that will continue to endure. Her home was a haven for many, always filled with the comforting aroma of a warm meal and the laughter of friends and family. Sandra's door was always open and she found immense joy in sharing her home and heart with others.

Sandra was a woman of many talents. She was a gifted hairdresser, a skilled home interior decorator and an artist with a remarkable creative vision. Her green thumb brought life to everything she touched, and her garden was a testament to her love of beauty and growth.

In the darkest of days, Sandra had a way of making everything shine. A remarkable woman of unwavering strength, she was truly a force to be reckoned with. Throughout her life, she overcame immense challenges with grace and resilience, leaving an indelible mark on everyone she encountered.

Sandra's legacy is one of love, resilience, and creativity. She will be deeply missed but forever cherished in the hearts of those who knew her. Her life was a testament to the power of kindness, strength, and the enduring bonds of family. She leaves behind a world that is brighter because of her presence, and her memory will continue to inspire all who were fortunate enough to know her. Sandra is predeceased by her daughter, Lee-Anne (Scaccia) Cruz and her brother, Robert Ceparski.

Surviving to cherish her memory are her husband, Francis A. Scaccia, her sons, Frank (Molly) and children, Damian (Melissa) and children, her grandchildren; Amanda (Franklin) Woods, Natalie (Daniel) Relyea, Cole (Indalina) Cruz, great-grandchildren, her sister, Barbara Pickering, many nieces and nephews.

There will be a private celebration at a later date.
