A long time resident of Hamden, Mrs. Montalto was an avid reader and greatly enjoyed time spent with her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Mrs. Montalto leaves her daughter, Gloria Bogen and her husband, Charles of North Haven; son, William Montalto and his wife, Karen of Bethany; five grandchildren, Charles Bogen of Durham, Bryan Bogen of North Haven, Kirk Johnson also of North Haven, Marc Montalto of Tampa, FL, and Ted Montalto of New Haven; and ten great-grandchildren. Besides her husband, she was also predeceased by her daughter, Carol Montalto Lopez. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Thursday, Sept. 21, at 10 a.m. at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church. Friends may visit with the family on Wed. from 5-8 p.m. at BEECHER & BENNETT, 2300 Whitney Ave., Hamden. Contributions in Mrs. Montalto's name can be sent to the charity of one's choice.
Aunt Jeanette was a very caring person with a smile for everyone.
Please accept my sympathy in the passing of Aunt Jeanette. She was my father’s youngest sister and this ends the members of the Bowes family. I recall many happy times.
