Jeannette Yvonne Raineri

It was in Lawrence where she was raised and attended St. Ann's School.  When her sweetheart Arthur returned from the war, the two were married and quickly settled in Boston's North End, expecting to stay only a short time.  The two began raising their family there, while Arthur worked as a firefighter in Boston.  Jeannette and Arthur had six children together and in 1978, they relocated to Malden, where they remained together until Arthur’s passing in 1999.  The two had shared over 52 years together.  Although Jeannette did enjoy her Bingo nights and the occasional trip to Foxwoods, truly her greatest source of joy was her family.

Raineri of Malden, her very dear niece, Yvonne M. Venuti of Reading, her son-in-law David Lewin, her brothers, Wilfred Levesque of Lawrence and Roger Levesque of Salem, NH, and her sister, Theresa Turner of Tompkinsville, Ky.  She is also survived by her grandchildren, William Newcomb, Kimberly Mooney, Michele Accolla, Korin Garcia, and Francesca Raineri, and her great grandchildren, Tyler Accolla, Alexander Garcia, Trianna Accolla, Morgan Mooney, and Jake Mooney.
