Thompson – Jodi A. Polletta, 48, of Thompson, passed away unexpectedly on March 27, 2025. Jodi was born in Southbridge and raised in Dudley, daughter of Vincent Polletta and Shari Gagner.
Jodi had worked many jobs before becoming a mother. Once her children came along, she was a full-time stay at home mom and cherished every minute of it. She took great pride in her children and was there for all the big events in their lives. In her spare time, she enjoyed gardening, cooking, going for walks and knitting. Whenever anyone needed help, Jodi was there to lend a helping hand with a smile on her face.
Jodi is survived by her father, Vincent Polletta of Dudley; her mother Shari Gagner of Dudley; her two sons Tyler Polletta and his wife Lauren of Dudley, Zackary Minarik of Thompson; her three daughters Jeanna Polletta and her partner Leroy Rock IV of Thompson, Mekayla Minarik and her partner Michael Bordeaux of Dudley and Mackenzie Minarik of Thompson.
