Antonietta DeVitis, 90, of Conway, passed away on May 1, 2025, in her home with her loving family by her side. She was born in Lettopalena, Italy, on March 6, 1935, to the late Eugenio and Camilla (Martinelli) Cavicchia.
Antonietta and her firstborn son, Phil, joined her husband, Ermando, in the United States in 1957. After settling in the U.S., their family grew by 3 more children, Eugene, Timothy, and Maria. Antonietta loved to cook, and she was the best cook, described by her oldest granddaughter, Justine. Her days were surrounded by meals. As soon as she finished preparing a meal, her mind quickly geared toward the next one. Antonietta enjoyed crocheting, watching her “stories;” especially The Young and the Restless, and her favorite color was purple. Above all, she absolutely adored and loved her grandchildren. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
Antonietta is survived by her loving husband of 70 years, Ermando DeVitis; 3 sons, Phil (Cindy) DeVitis, Gene (Tracy) DeVitis, Tim DeVitis, and a daughter, Maria (Michael) delaChevrotiere; 5 granddaughters, Justine (John) Holleran, Mya and Marisa delaChevrotiere, and Bianca and Morgan DeVitis; also, 2 great grandsons, Jack and Ethan Holleran.
