Anita Reppucci Obituary
Medford - The Last Dance of Joy on this Earth for my beautiful sister, Anita, was Nov. 1st, but we are certain that she is now laughing, smiling and dancing with the angels in Heaven with the same flair, spirit and "Joie de Vivre" that she lived her entire life.
Anita is a beloved daughter, sister, stepmother, step-grandmother, cat mom, educator and friend.
She is predeceased by the love of her life, Neil. She is survived by her loving mother, sister, stepchildren, step-grandchildren, Beaurigard and many friends.
She traveled throughout Europe and the USA and spoke several languages. She lived her life her way, "La Dolce Vita" with no regrets. Once you knew her, you could never forget her unique flamboyant personality, spirit and humor. She remained so brave, courageous, positive, upbeat and joyful throughout her entire journey always with her beautiful signature smile that it was remarkable to all. She loved her friends, family, stepchildren and step-grandchildren like they were her own. She proudly shared photos of them with everyone and called them her gifts. Her love of animals (especially Beaurigard) and children was so apparent by the glow on her face and sparkle in her eyes. She loved her music, singing and dancing. She had a huge, generous heart that touched so many lives. We are blessed to have known her. She will be dearly missed and remembered forever in our hearts.
In lieu of flowers, for her love of animals, please make donations to AWA, Centennial Blvd, Voorhees, N.J. or Burlington County SPCA + PASPCA-AWA.
In honoring her wishes there will not be a viewing nor service. At this difficult time please no visits or phone calls but kind words with happy memories of Anita are so greatly appreciated. Thank you all for caring. Arrangements are under the care and direction of the Mathis Funeral Home, Medford, NJ.
Anita's philosophy of life: "Que Sera, Sera"
No tears for me - Only Laughter
No frowns - Only Smiles
No sorrow - Only Joy
No mourning - Only Celebrating
No regrets - Only Happy Memories

I really enjoyed having Miss Latini as my Spanish teacher at JFK in the 1970s. She was interesting, kind, and fun. To me she will always be the young vibrant person I knew. She took our class to Spain for a week during my junior year too. That was fun.

I am so sorry to hear of Anita's passing. She was my Spanish 3 and 4 teacher! She taught me a lot, of which I remember most of!! May she sing with the angels!

What a lovely tribute to your very special sister! I last saw Anita at Neil's life celebration, and I love thinking of her the way you described Anita, happily dancing amongst the stars, surrounded by all her loved ones whe preceded her, Gloria! You are in my prayers, my heart and my thoughts, and I send my condolences for the loss of this beautiful soul, but I wish I could give you hug at the same time, Gloria! We are all here for you! God bless you! XOXOXO

Miss Latini was my high school Spanish teacher from 1968-1971. I always looked forward to going to her classes. She inspired me to love Spanish. Her beautiful smile always brightened my day. I am sure you will be missed by many who have known you throughout the years!

Dear Gloria, I was shocked and very saddened when I heard that Anita had passed. My thoughts go back to all the great times and adventures we all had together from our first apartment to camping in Europe and all of the other wonderful times . Anita had a laugh that was contagious and she was always fun to be with. Although we haven't seen each other in years, I am still heartbroken as we never forget our close relationships from our past. My prayers and my heart go out to you and your mom.
With my deepest sympathy

I will miss your smile and Italianism. I always enjoyed our lunches together and the times Frank and I spent with you and Neil at Club Med just hanging out. Now, there's no more pain and you're back with your love, Neil.

I will miss your smile and Italianism. I always enjoyed our lunches together and the many times the four of us went to dinner together and spending time at Club Med by the pool and grilling burgers. Now there's no more pain and you're back together with Neil.

Anita was like a sister to me. I'll always remember the great time we had on Marco, the dinners we shared and the special conversations we shared.She had such a deep love for Neil and pampered him so much. I'm sure she is with him now, the love of her life. I will never forget you Anita. Your Rhode Island friend

Anita was such a loving and generous woman. She always looked on the bright side of things. She was the mom I never had. When my father, Neil, passed I had only known her for 5 months. She could have just gone her way, but she continued to be my family and my children's Nanny. We are all broken hearted and miss her terribly.
I know she's with Dad - probably spoiling him rotten like she always did.
Ciao xoxo
