Jeanette Rinaldi

Jeanette “Jen” (Miceli) Rinaldi, 95, of Enfield, beloved wife of the late Louis Rinaldi, died peacefully on Monday, November 30, 2015 at Suffield by the River. Born in the Thompsonville section of Enfield, Jeanette was the daughter of the late Charles and Josephine (Provenzano) Miceli. A lifelong resident of Enfield, she graduated from Enfield High School, Class of 1938. Jen was a communicant of St. Patrick Church and retired from Aetna Life Insurance Company after many years of service. Jen loved to bake, do cross-stitch and do the daily Jumble; but most of all she loved to be with her family. She will long be remembered for telling wonderful stories and by her grandchildren for her lasagna and cheesecake; and there’s no doubt Christmas will never be the same without her cookies! Jen is survived by her loving daughter, Linda Rinaldi and her husband, James Burks of Palmyra, NJ; her three grandchildren, Jarrett Burks, Jalen Burks and Samantha Rinaldi. She was predeceased by her son, John Rinaldi and her identical twin sister, Vince “Vinnie” Miceli.
