Carol A. McCallion, a resident of East Hampton for many years and more recently of Naples, Fla., died on Sept. 1 at Southampton Hospital. The cause of death was a heart attack, her family said. She was 74.

Born Carol Scoppa on Jan. 8, 1943, in Brooklyn to Philip Scoppa and the former Elisa Bellincampi, she attended Fort Hamilton High School. She moved to East Hampton in 1964 after her marriage to Donald McCallion. 

She worked as an office assistant at the Condie Lamb Real Estate Agency in East  Hampton, and, over the years, was active in the Most Holy Trinity Catholic Church Parish Council, the Italian American Club, and the Council of Catholic Women.

After her husband died in the mid-1990s, she moved to Florida but returned to East Hampton every summer for three or four months.

Ms. McCallion is survived by her children, Carol Ann Zellway of Bloomfield, N.J., and Gerald McCallion of Waynesville, N.C., as well as by a sister, Rindy Wolfe of East Hampton, and several great-nieces and great-nephews. Ms. Wolfe said her sister would be missed by everyone in their large Italian-American family as well as by her many friends in East Hampton and Florida.

A funeral Mass was celebrated on Sept. 6 at Most Holy Trinity Church. The family has suggested memorial donations to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, 262 Danny Thomas Place, Memphis, Tenn. 38105 or stjude.org.
