Jami E. Mazei 1992-2024

She was born June 3, 1992, in Youngstown, to Gary and Brenda Dina Mazei, and was a 2010 graduate of Austintown Fitch High School.

Jami went on to attend YSU, then Maryville University to obtain her master’s degree in nursing science. She was a pediatric nurse practitioner and was currently employed as an RN for Akron Children’s Hospital.

Jami had many interests and things that brought her joy, such as everything Dolly Parton, Sunday fundays in the pool and being with her friends, but she held a very special place in her heart for Disney. Her love started on her first trip at 3 years old and spanned the years to her last trip at 31, with at least two dozen trips in between. It was her happiest place on earth.

Jami leaves behind to carry on her memory her parents; her sisters, Jennifer (Jason) Murdock and Jessica (Mark Nitsky) Mazei; her uncle and aunt, Joe and Rosalynda Dina; her godmother, Tina Ballmer; her special friends who were more like sisters, Miranda Ballmer, Miriah Tuchek and Lori Protain; as well as numerous aunts, uncles and cousins, especially her special girls, Lilliana, Elliana and Gracie Dina; and her special buddy, Theodore.

Jami was preceded in death by her maternal and paternal grandparents, Joseph and Elaine Dina, and Albert and Irene Mazei; plus her dogs, Harlee and Brody.

Family and friends may call noon to 2 p.m. Tuesday, May 7, 2024, at Lane Funeral Homes, Austintown Chapel, with funeral services to follow at 2 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you consider making a monetary contribution to a local mental health facility or to Akron Children’s Hospital, in Jami’s name.

Jami is now at peace.
