Mary & Mary “She was never Not there for her family.” ~Mary Mary & Joe, 1968
ary Rosenello of North Wildwood passed away on December 24, 2021, joining her loving husband Joseph in eternity. Mary was born on December 20, 1933, in Philadelphia. She also resided in Bucks and Montgomery Counties before finding her home by the sea in 1977 when Mary, Joe and seven of their eight children relocated from Levittown, Pa to North Wildwood, NJ. They happily lived in a charming seaside house they determined was built between 1890 & 1905. A true Wildwood lover, Mary was a big fan of the Sun and always willing to contribute her family’s own seaside tales. Mary graduated from St. Stephen’s Elementary School and Little Flower High School in 1947 and 1951, respectively. She worked at Bell Telephone and Atlantic Refinery in Philadelphia and was a proud volunteer lunch mom at St. Michaels the Archangel Elementary School in Levittown and St. Ann’s Elementary School in Wildwood during her kids’ school years. She spent 15 of what she considered her “retirement years” as the Guidance
MSecretary at Wildwood Catholic High School. Ever the caring “mom,” she helped countless students with their college admissions process, making sure they had their scholarship applications completed. Mary proudly served as a member of the Little Flower Alumni Association of Cape May County and the Cape May County Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians. No doubt her biggest accomplishment was the loving family she raised. She is survived by her nine children (including North Wildwood Mayor Patrick Rosenello), 20 grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. We here at The Sun send our deepest condolences to the Rosenello family. We fondly remember Mary and her beautiful legacy that happily lives on by the sea…
