Obituary

On Saturday, July 31, 2021, Josephine Patturelli, loving wife and mother of three children, peacefully passed away at the age of 67.

Josephine was born on April 7, 1954, in Boston, MA to Joseph and Isabel (Collazo) Holub. On August 30, 1985, she married Richard Patturelli and together they raised a son, Joseph Gomes, and two daughters, Betty Holub and Danielle Patturelli, in Derry, NH.

A fierce survivor of breast cancer, Josephine was a strong and independent woman with a kind and compassionate heart. She loved her career and colleagues at L3 Communications where she proudly worked quality control for mission critical night vision gear for US soldiers. She was an avid traveler, with a special calling to the White Mountains as well as Sedona, AZ. She also loved shopping and would often combine her two hobbies into interesting trips. By her many close friends, she was affectionately called ‘Jo Jo’ and will be remembered as infectiously funny, a dear friend who would cheer people up with humor, and sometimes surprise everyone with impromptu dance. Above all her hobbies was her unwavering love and support of her grandchildren who she has a special place in all of their hearts.

She is survived by her husband Richard, three children, Joseph, Betty, and Danielle, two sisters, Mary Madigan and Mickey Holub, as well as half-brother Francis Gonyea, and eleven grandchildren, in addition to many wonderful nieces and nephews.
There are no calling hours. Graveside services will be held by the family on Saturday August 14, 2021, at 1pm at Pine Grove Cemetery, Route 175, Thornton, NH. ( The Cemetery is a short distance up 175 from Benton's Sugar Shack, 2010 New Hampshire Rte 175, Thornton, NH 03285) In honor of Josephine, we request all attendees to dress in their favorite jeans.
