Obituary of Jeanne Marie Testa

Jeanne Marie Testa (Giovinazzi), 78, of Vineland, New Jersey, passed away peacefully at home on January 17, 2025, after battling cancer. She is survived by her husband of fifty-seven years, Joseph Testa, Sr.; sons Frank (Kelly) and Joseph (Joelle); grandchildren, Lorenzo, Elenna Rose, Katherine Jeanne, and Joseph; brother, Cosmo "Corky" Giovinazzi (Barbara); and sister, Carol Cocca (Nicholas); as well as many cousins, nieces and nephews. Known fondly as "Grams," Jeanne's greatest joy was spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren, Enzo, Elenna, Kate, and Joey. She was always the first to volunteer to watch them when they were young. She loved attending their sporting events, dance recitals, plays, and parades. Her generosity had no bounds as she was so proud to take the entire family on multiple vacations to the Caribbean, Mexico, and Italy, where she was able to introduce her children and grandchildren to her Italian relatives. Jeanne received her B.A. from Glassboro State College. She will forever be remembered as a dedicated and caring special education teacher and department head, in the Vineland School District for over 25 years. Everyone who knew Jeanne will always remember her amazing cooking, overflowing vegetable, fruit and flower gardens, and her absolute love of dachshunds. Everyone she met became a lifelong friend because to know Jeanne was to love Jeanne.
