Nancy Esposito (nee Van Cook), of New Port Richey, FL, passed away peacefully on January 24, 2025. Beloved wife of 59 years to Arthur Esposito and mother to Donna (Angelo) Maiello and Michael (Monika) Esposito, adored grandmother to Paul, Joseph, and Alex. Nancy was born on June 13, 1949, in the Bronx, NY to Norman and Patricia (nee Nolan) Van Cook, and was a cherished sister to Peter, Barbara, and Norman. Nancy served as a medical laboratory technologist and supervisor for decades at Letchworth Village and The Nathan Kline Institute in New York. Nancy and Arthur were generous hosts to family and friends over the years at their homes in Rockland County, NY and New Port Richey, FL. Nancy was an avid reader, enjoyed word games of all kinds, and was a fan of the Tampa Bay Rays and Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
A service to celebrate Nancy’s life will be held at a later date.
Donations in Nancy’s honor can be made to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation at T2T.org.

I loved my sister. We were very close growing up together. She was so thoughtful even to the end she had even purchased a bracelet for me with charms before her death. The charms were a shamrock, a blue stone, a Christal ball’ an angel, and a heart with the word sister.

Many, many fond memories of cousin Nancy while growing up just a few blocks from one another in the Bronx! One of my favorites is walking home from PS 87 for lunch. Our Grandmother provided the food and my sister, Nancy and I all the chatter! Peace to all who will miss her and may all your memories help heal your hearts. 💕
