A woman of strong religious values and morals, Mrs. Sienko embraced her Catholic religion and was a communicant of St. Mark Roman Catholic Church in the Attleboro Falls neighborhood. Her family recalls with love and affection her skill at baking pastries and her green thumb for gardening in earlier years. She also enjoyed classical music, old movies and the color purple but most of all; she is remembered for her unending love of family. Mrs. Sienko leaves her son: Gary A.
