Kelli-Ann DiTraglia, 56, of Cold Spring, died on Oct. 22, 2017, at her home after a brief illness.

Kelli-Ann was born April 10, 1961, in Cold Spring to Tom and Dorothy Galvin. She married Frank DiTragli. She graduated from Mercy College with a master’s degree in occupational therapy and enjoyed a career as a therapist at various practices.

Kelli was a loving mother who devoted her life to her children and helping those with special needs. She was never one to back down because something was difficult which allowed her to look at the whole picture. Her focus made her a great source of strength and support to others in finding their way in life. She loved to garden and spend her time outdoors with family and friends.

She is survived by her children, Frank DiTraglia and Anna DiTraglia.

The family will receive friends from 4 to 8 p.m. on Oct. 27 at the E.O. Curry Funeral Home, 313 N. James St., in Peekskill, followed by a funeral service at 8 p.m.
