  "account": "Marion Scotto, the mother of Fox 5 anchor Rosanna Scotto, passed away at the age of 90. The beloved mother, who was previously married to Anthony Scotto until his death in 2021, leaves behind a legacy that her daughter fondly remembered. Marion's restaurant, Fresco by Scotto, has been a Midtown Manhattan staple since its opening in 1993, welcoming a diverse array of guests including presidents, celebrities, and regular New Yorkers. The restaurant's success is a testament to Marion's belief in hard work and her leap of faith in founding the eatery. A mother of four, grandmother of eight and great-grandmother, Marion's greatest accomplishment was her family, as her daughter Rosanna shared in a heartfelt Instagram tribute. Rosanna often joined her mother on holiday broadcasts and shared family traditions, solidifying her place in her mother's life. The restaurant, still owned by the family, continues to be famous for its classic Italian dishes and has hosted an impressive list of guests, including Jay-Z, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Selena Gomez, Sylvester Stallone, Nick Jonas, and Whitney Houston.",
