With heavy hearts, we mourn the passing of Jeannette Tineo of Newington, Connecticut, who left us on April 19, 2025, at the age of 48. Jeannette’s warmth, compassion, and unwavering kindness touched everyone she met—family, friends, and the broader Newington community alike. Her bright spirit and generous heart made every gathering richer and every challenge easier to bear.
Early Life and Legacy
Jeannette grew up in Newington, where she was known for her caring nature from an early age. She forged deep friendships in school and later became a pillar of support in her neighborhood—organizing community potlucks, volunteering at local shelters, and always offering a listening ear to anyone in need.
Family and Relationships
She is survived by her devoted partner, who shared countless joyful moments and challenges by her side. Together they raised children who will forever carry forward their mother’s compassion and strength. Jeannette also leaves behind parents and siblings who remember her as a bright light in their lives—a daughter and sister whose love was steadfast and true.
Community Impact
Jeannette’s kindness extended beyond her family. She volunteered regularly at the Newington Food Bank, helped coordinate the town’s annual holiday toy drive, and mentored young adults through the local community center. Many recall her generosity during difficult times—whether delivering meals to homebound neighbors or organizing book drives for local schools.
Honoring Jeannette’s Memory
A celebration of Jeannette’s life will be held at the Newington Community Center on Saturday, May 2, 2025. Friends and loved ones are invited to share memories, photograph displays, and music that reflect the joy she brought into our lives. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Newington Food Bank or the Community Mentorship Fund—causes close to Jeannette’s heart.
Please keep Jeannette’s partner, children, and extended family in your thoughts and prayers during this profoundly difficult time. May we honor her memory by extending the same warmth and compassion she shared with us every day.
