Mary Ellen Piraino was a resident of Springfield, Missouri, who died on November 10, 2026, at the age of 70. She was born on June 28, 1956, in Los Angeles, California. Beyond these basic facts, published records about her life remain limited: no detailed biography, career history, or public record of her work has yet been made available, and this page will be updated as more information is confirmed.

What is known comes from the funeral notice filed with Walnut Lawn Funeral Home in Springfield. It states plainly that she passed away on November 10, 2026, and that she was survived by her husband, Frank. The notice did not include information about children, parents, siblings, education, or occupation, and a fuller obituary had not been posted as of this writing.

Mary Ellen Piraino does not appear to have been a widely known public figure, and no Wikipedia entry or substantial media coverage of her life exists. This page has been compiled, as a matter of record and respect, from the funeral home's public notice and the limited details it contains. Readers searching for more should check back, since funeral homes often post a fuller account of a person's life, family, and interests in the days following a death.

Her death will be marked with a committal service rather than a traditional funeral, scheduled to take place at the Missouri Veterans Cemetery in Springfield, Missouri, a detail suggesting a connection, either her own or her husband's, to military service, though this has not been separately confirmed. The choice of a veterans cemetery as her final resting place is one of the few additional facts available about her life circumstances.

For now, what can be said with certainty is that Mary Ellen Piraino lived seventy years, was remembered by her funeral home as a wife, and was mourned by her husband Frank and by whatever circle of family and friends arranged for her care after death. The specific cause of her death has not been made public.

Mary Ellen Piraino died on November 10, 2026, in or near Springfield, Missouri, at the age of 70. Her death was announced through a notice filed with Walnut Lawn Funeral Home, Ltd., the DeGraffenreid-Wood Crematory in Springfield, which handled arrangements. The notice confirmed her birth date as June 28, 1956, in Los Angeles, California, and named her husband, Frank, as her surviving spouse. No cause of death has been made public, and the funeral home indicated that a more detailed obituary would be posted once available, meaning further biographical details had not yet been released at the time of this writing.

A committal service is scheduled to take place on Friday, November 13, 2026, at 11:00 AM at the Missouri Veterans Cemetery in Springfield, Missouri, officiated by John Veach. A committal service of this kind, held at a graveside or columbarium rather than at a church or funeral home, is typically a brief ceremony focused on the final interment, and its location at a veterans cemetery suggests a military connection in the family, either through Mary Ellen Piraino herself or through her husband, though this has not been separately confirmed by other sources.

As of this writing, there have been no public tributes, news coverage, or reactions beyond the funeral home's notice. This is consistent with her apparent status as a private individual rather than a public figure. This page will be updated if a fuller obituary, tributes from family and friends, or additional details about her life become available.
