     Antonia (Arpino) Vergona, age 93 of Watertown, passed away on February 4, 2026.  Beloved wife to the late Joseph A. Vergona.

A woman of faith, she enjoyed going to church and found comfort in her devotion. Antonia was also a talented seamstress who took pride in sewing for those she loved. Above all else, she was deeply family-oriented—her greatest happiness came from being surrounded by her family, who were truly the center of her world.
