Diana Marie Mangraviti

Diana Mangraviti (née Ruscica), a beloved, devoted, and loving wife and mother, passed away peacefully on October 30, 2026, with her husband, Nick, and son, Michael, lovingly by her side.

Beautiful in spirit and in heart, Diana will be remembered as an intelligent, compassionate, genuine, and nurturing woman whose warmth and generosity touched the lives of so many. She possessed a remarkable empathy for others, a generous heart, and a cheerful enthusiasm for life. She believed in caring for people, giving of herself, and approaching everything she did with thoughtfulness, curiosity, and an innate drive for excellence.

Diana is survived by her devoted husband, Nick, and beloved son, Michael; her parents, Sebastian and Clara; her sisters, Sandra and Lisa; her niece, Alexandra, and nephew, Thomas, and their respective families; as well as numerous cousins. Her loss will be felt deeply by all who had the privilege of knowing and loving her.

A woman of many interests and passions, Diana found joy in the richness of life's experiences. She loved live music, art, theater, entertainment, nature, and, especially, good food shared with family and friends. She had an appreciation for beautiful things, a particular fondness for fashion, and an enduring curiosity about the world around her. She was equally interested in law, government, politics and entertainment.

A proud Philadelphian, she enjoyed the energy, pageantry, and traditions of her beloved Philadelphia. Diana cherished the city's distinctive traditions, particularly the Mummers and Thanksgiving Day Parades, and shared in the passion and loyalty of Eagles football. These familiar celebrations and hometown traditions were among the many things that brought her happiness.

Diana's academic and professional accomplishments reflected her intelligence, determination, and dedication. She attended St. Martha's School in Philadelphia and Archbishop Ryan High School, before continuing her education at La Salle University and Temple University School of Law where she attained her Juris Doctor degree. A Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and Certified Fraud Examiner, she built a distinguished professional career, including work in internal audit for News Corporation and with the internationally recognized accounting firm Arthur Andersen.

Throughout her life, Diana combined professional achievement with a deep appreciation for people, culture, and the simple pleasures that make life meaningful. She was beautiful, intelligent, loving, caring, and genuine—a woman whose presence brought warmth and whose enthusiasm was infectious.

Those who knew Diana will remember her not only for what she accomplished, but for who she was: her kindness, her generosity, her curiosity, her laughter, and the love she gave so freely. Her spirit will live on in the hearts of her family and friends, in the memories they treasure, and in the countless lives she touched.
