Jean Ann Campitelli

December 3, 1942 - January 12, 2019

Jean “Jeanie” Campitelli, age 76 of Blackwood, NJ passed away peacefully in her home on, January 12, 2019. She was born December 3, 1942 in Philadelphia, PA. She is predeceased by her parents, Nicolas Campitelli and Serena Pagano Campitelli, and her son Thomas Johnston. Jean spent many years as a hairdresser in her salon in Folcroft, PA until 1978 when she and her family moved to Deptford, NJ. It was then she began working for the Deptford Township Board of Education as a cook in the cafeteria, later advancing to their Food Service Manager. It is no wonder that she landed there given her passion for cooking, especially for the kids. Jean was a remarkable cook and always enjoyed preparing meals for her family, most especially over the holidays. Her second passion was for dancing, she was an amazing dancer which started in high school where she won several competitions. Later they would refer to her as “Jean-Jean the dancing machine”. She also enjoyed travelling with family and friends. However, she would tell you that her biggest accomplishment was being a mother. She loved her children fiercely and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren just as much. Jean is survived by daughter Deneen Morrotta of Auburn, ME, son Ken Johnston and his wife Maria of Deptford, NJ. Her granddaughters Dana Drabold, Kristen Morrotta, Erika Morrotta, Stephanie Roy, Adrianna Johnston, and Giana Johnston. Her grandsons Kyle Herald, Kenny Johnston, Broderick Johnston and Finnley Johnston. Her great-grandchildren Savannah Johnson, Peyton Sullivan and Troy Drabold. She is also survived by her brother John Campitelli and his wife JoAnn, her sister Joanne Elder and her husband Rick, and her sister Rose Mascherino. Out of respect for Jean’s wishes there will be no services. Messages of condolences may be shared at www.earlefuneralhome.com. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to St. Jude Children’s Hospital https://www.stjude.org/donate/donate-to-st-jude.html?frequency_selected=2&sc_icid=wtg-lz-cards, a charity Jean supported for many years.
