Eleanor, Zaccaagnini, 75, of Hillsboro Beach passed away suddenly at home on September 15, 2011.
Boca Raton is a better community because  Eleanor Zaccagnini lived here. For almost 30 years, Eleanor gave to so many organizations, and despite losing her husband John shortly after moving here, she raised her daughters, took care of her mother and continued to be a positive force for all fortunate to know her. She networked in such a positive way– always putting family, friends and her favorite organizations first. Her smile and warmth will be missed.

Eleanor is survived by her two adoring daughters Lynn (Paul) Lawless, Lisa (George) Bariso and six beloved grandchildren Kathleen, Emily, Paul Jr. and Mark Lawless, and John and Zachary Bariso.

She is also survived by her sister Ann Spina of MI and brothers James (Toni) Tringali of Boca Raton, John (Karen) Tringali of Ocean Ridge and sister-in-law Emma Kostes of MI, along with her many devoted nieces and nephews.

Eleanor’s greatest joy in life came from doing for others so in lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Boca Raton Regional Hospital Debbie Rand Memorial Service League or Junior League of Boca Raton.
