Corazon M. Bartolome

Corazon M. Bartolome, 85, of Folsom, PA and formerly of Queens, NY, died on June 30, 2026. Born in Tarlac, Tarlac, Philippines, the daughter of the late Ernesto and Anastasia Malig Bartolome, she immigrated to the United States, settling in New York and then Pennsylvania, where she lived with her nephew Bernie and his family.

Corazon received a bachelor's degree in medical technology from Centro Escolar University. She was employed as a Medical Technologist at Quest Diagnostic before her retirement in 2006 and had previously worked at Ebreo Feeds in Novaliches, Philippines. She attended Sunday services at The Church of St. Madeline in Ridley Park and enjoyed going to the School House Senior Center in Folsom. Corazon was an avid reader and loved traveling. Her other hobbies included Zumba, painting, and completing word search puzzles. Her greatest joy, however, was spending time with family, telling stories, reminiscing, eating, and playing with the littlest ones.

She was predeceased by her sisters Erlinda Camano (Santiago, Sr.) and Anita Bartolome. She is survived by her sister Letitia Andreani (Achille), her nephews Alfredo Camano (Nancy), Bernardo Camano (Denise), Santiago Camano, Jr (Josefina), Roberto Camano (Karen) and her niece Linda Andreani (Marco). She was the great-aunt of Francis, Miguel, Angelia (Trey), Joshua (Leslie), Emily (Andrew), Jessica (Cameron), Joseph, and Jaden. She was the great-great-aunt of Ester, Ava, Violet, Leo, and Everly.

Cora had a way of making those around her feel comfortable and included. She was the life of the party wherever she went, with an unwavering faith and a love for life. Cora was well loved by everyone she met, and will be profoundly missed.
