It is with great sadness, shock and disbelief that I share the news of the sudden passing of my beautiful mother and best friend Jo Ann Bellanti. Anyone that knew her, knew that she welcomed you into her home and heart. She was generous, kind and knew how to host the best parties and family gatherings. She loved to travel, entertain, cook and care for her beautiful back yard with her Caribbean-like pool and exotic flowers. I swear she never sat still. If she was not in the greenhouse planting seeds; you would find her making Pot Pockets or filling bags of Stoned Dust in her garage. John always said she did more in one morning than most could do in a week; before people even got up out of bed in the morning. She was an early riser. I can say with certainty that she lived life to the fullest and told me that the best gift to give yourself was the gift of travel. She is finally reunited with the love of her life to rekindle their "Everlasting love." My heart breaks for me, her siblings, her family, her friends near and far, and her beloved Rocko Rinaldo. Mom, I promise to spoil him rotten, brush his beautiful red ears daily, take him for all the car rides and walks he could ever imagine and most importantly buy stock in lint brushes, blueberries and cheerios. Love you Mom. May you be at peace back in John's arms and continue to keep us all going to get through this unbelievably difficult time. Services will be next week Tues/ Wed. Information and details will soon be on
