With deep sorrow and love, we announce the passing of Janet Rouse (DeMeo), who left us on
Sunday, May 18, 2025, in the cherished Hyde Park, Massachusetts home where she was born,
raised, and spent much of her adult life.
A true Bostonian at heart, Janet had an enduring love for her city—especially its sports teams.
She was rarely seen without her beloved Patriots cap. Janet dedicated many years of her life to
a career in the financial field, where she was respected for her diligence and integrity.
Janet was predeceased by her loving parents, Mary and Joseph DeMeo, and her husband
Kevin Rouse. She is survived by her devoted twin brother, John DeMeo, and his wife, Ellen; her
aunts Phyllis Pasch, Kathy Saturno, and Diane Saturno; as well as many beloved cousins,
nieces, and nephews.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made in Janet’s memory to the
American Heart Association.
She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Family and friends are invited to attend the viewing hours on Tuesday May 27, 2025 from 5-7 PM in the Joseph Russo Funeral Home, 814 American Legion Highway, Roslindale, MA. Burial will be at a later date.
