Always interested in the arts, she joined the Staten Island Art Association with her mother, and was eventually exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art as well as Snug Harbor Cultural Center where she was acclaimed for her work in water colors. Upon moving to Savannah, she joined the Michaels Arts and Crafts family and enjoyed many years there with her fellow employees.

I just wanted to give my sympathy to the loved ones and friends of Ms. Fischetti. The sting of death is an inescapable one. Something that has helped me is a promise found at 1 Corinthians 15:26. Perhaps this can be helpful to you all as well. May you all continue to receive comfort from God. I hope you all are doing as well as can be expected during this time.

I would like to express my condolences to the family of Ms. Fischetti. No doubt many will feel the loss of such a dear loved one. May you all find comfort in the loving promise found at Revelation 21:4 "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."
