Jean Marie Roselli

April 30, 1931 - July 14, 2016

On July 14, Jean Roselli ended her long battle with pancreatic cancer, a horrible disease. She was the beloved wife of the late Joseph Roselli and the devoted daughter of the late Joseph and Emma Foppiano. She was the loving mother of Ronald (Nanette) Roselli, Deborah (Patrick) Nurisso, Thomas Roselli and Janet Roselli Bejinez (Xavier). She was the adoring Grandmother of Joseph (Laura), Matthew (Nicole) Nurisso, Anthony (Corey) Roselli and Anna, Amanda and Alexandra Roselli. She was the totally enamored Great-Grandmother of John Joseph Nurisso. She shared a special relationship with her two daughters, the "Three Musketeers." She loved her family, friends and the San Francisco Giants more than anything. Donations in her memory can be sent to: UCSF, http://cancer.ucsf.edu/research/pancreas/; Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA or Sutter Care at Home (2855 Telegraph Avenue, Suite 601, Berkeley, CA 94705).
