It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Jean Schofield, who left us on April 23, 2025. Born on September 12, 1943, Jean graced the world with her presence for 82 years, leaving an indelible mark on everyone fortunate enough to cross her path.

Jean's infectious spirit will forever be preserved in the hearts of her loving daughters, Gina D'Alessio and Michelle Schofield, who survive her. She also leaves behind her brother, Thomas Bertolami. Sister in-law Angela Bertolami..Nephews Tom jr, Mario, Dominick  and Niece Adrianna..Jean joins her late mother, Margaret Aiuto, father Ernest Bertolami, rekindling their deeply cherished mother-daughter relationship in the celestial sphere.

Anyone who had the pleasure of knowing Jean knew her to be an enthusiastic food lover. Her love for cooking transcended cultures: she delved into the complexities of Italian, Greek, and Polish cuisines, generously inviting others into her culinary world. Jean had an incredible talent for creating dishes that not only fed the body but nurtured the soul. Her warmth resonated in her meals, filling both stomachs and hearts to the brim.

To celebrate Jean's life is to celebrate a life lived with passion, kindness, and a deep love of family and food. Since she left us in body, her spirit continues to linger in the cherished memories she created and the legendary recipes she leaves behind. As we say goodbye, we imagine her in a place where the kitchen is always warm, the pantry is always full, and every meal is shared with loved ones.
