      Jeannette P. Vigliotti, 92, of Titusville, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, August 13, 2025.

Born in Newburgh, New York on October 17, 1932, Jeannette lived a life rooted in faith, family, and creativity. A devoted member of St. Teresa Catholic Church, her gentle spirit and loving heart touched all who knew her.

Jeannette found joy in life's simple pleasures, spending time with her family and friends, working on puzzles, coloring, and doing needlepoint, sewing, and cross-stitching. Her hands were rarely still, always creating something beautiful. A natural storyteller, she also loved writing and authored several books over the years. Jeannette had a passion for swimming and enjoyed the peace and freedom it brought her.

She is survived by her beloved children, Karen Schmitt and Michael Vigliotti (Mary Ann); and her cherished grandchildren, Jonathan and Frances. She was preceded in death by her loving husband, Emanuel C. Vigliotti.

Jeannette will be remembered for her warmth, her creativity, and the love she gave so freely to those around her. Her legacy of kindness, strength, and devotion to her family and friends will continue to live on in their hearts forever.
