Maria Vanda Jacobson

Maria Vanda Jacobson nee Ranieri
Born May 5, 1937 in Rome, Italy
Died February 28, 2026 age 88
Graduated cum laude from the University of Illinois in her second language, English.
Married to Robert Jacobson since September 18, 1966 for 59 loving years. Even when we had our disagreements and scraps she never lost sight of this feature: she wanted me to be happy and she was happy when I was.
Sweet in nature, kind and generous in spirit, loving in friend and family relations, ordinary in what some call achievements, yet she was great and irreplaceable to all who knew her.
Funeral Tuesday, March 3 at 10:30 am at Gibbons Family Funeral Home 5917 W. Irving Park Rd (1/2 Block East of Austin). Interment to follow at Wunder Cemetery 3963 N Clark St.
