Jean (Collins) Fedolfi passed away peacefully on November 10, 2025, surrounded by her loving family, after a long and courageous battle with Alzheimer’s disease.
Born in Framingham, Massachusetts, Jean was the youngest of nine children and the cherished daughter of Francis and Cecilia Collins. She married the love of her life, Joseph Fedolfi, in 1955, and together they built a beautiful life filled with laughter, family, and travel. They spent many happy years as “snowbirds,” dividing their time between New Hampshire and Port Charlotte, Florida, until Joe’s passing in 2010.
Jean will be remembered for her quick wit, sassiness, and sense of humor that brightened every room. She adored her family and was most at peace when surrounded by them.
She leaves behind her daughter Cindy (Fedolfi) Godbout (and husband Marc), sons Steve (and wife Candy) and Dave (and wife Kim), along with many beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was predeceased by her husband Joe and sons Larry and Ian, and now reunites with them in the Lord’s care.
The family wishes to thank the dedicated staff at Villa Crest and Elliot Hospice for their compassionate care and kindness.
In keeping with Jean’s wishes, services will be private. She will be laid to rest beside her husband at the New Hampshire State Veterans Cemetery in Boscawen.
Those wishing to honor her memory may donate to the Alzheimer’s Association (www.alz.org/manh), 15 Constitution Drive, Suite 1G, Bedford, NH 03110.
