Rosemarie Keane

Rosemarie (Roe) Keane (Tuzzo) passed away peacefully on May 17, 2025 in Staten Island, NY surrounded by her family.

Rosemarie was born in Manhattan on May 16th, 1940, where the original world trade center once stood. She was a devoted wife to her late husband, James.

Rosemarie met the love of her life at a dance. A dance that lead to 65 years of marriage to her beloved James. Eventually moving to Staten Island, they enjoyed family life on the North Shore of the Island with their children; then in 1974 they moved to Southeast Annadale to what became known as the "Keane Resort" with its wonderful 4th of July BBQ 's and countless birthday parties for their grandchildren.

Roe loved watching her daytime soap operas, especially General Hospital and walking hand in hand with Jimmy while shopping or sitting at Country Donuts.  She loved shopping with her daughters, especially the Christmas Tree Shoppe for crafts , home furnishings and sweet treats.

Rosemarie was a devoted Mom to Rosemarie Mondello (Emanuel), James Keane (Gina), Margaret Pugliese (Gerard), Kelly Savino (Anthony); and her seven grandchildren and four great grandchildren. 

She was a kind and generous woman who always put others first. She was a loyal friend and a wonderful neighbor. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
