Margaret Esculano was born the middle child of Josephine and Vincent LaCorte on March 29, 1942. She met her husband, John Esculano, when she was 15 years old at the candy shop in Brooklyn, New York. They were married in 1961 and had 5 children, John, Josephine, David, Stacey, and Stephanie.

Margaret was a loving wife and mother. She loved old movies, singing songs, and caring for others. Margaret spent many Sundays cooking "gravy" and meatballs for her family. In fact, this was the standard Sunday meal and all family and friends, near and far, were welcome to come and eat. Margaret was the glue that held the family together. She never met a stranger and all were welcome at her table.

Margaret is survived by her 5 children, 14 grandchildren, and 4 great grandchildren.

A funeral service will take place at 11 AM on Friday August 14, 2020 at St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church in Tampa. A celebration of life reception will take place after the service at her daughters house in Wesley Chapel. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to Gulfside Hospice, 2061 Collier Parkway, Land O' Lakes, FL 34639.
