Mary Jane Albanese, 86, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on Thursday, April 23, 2020. She was born May 14, 1933 in Columbus, Ohio to the late Eugene and Mary Pelino.
She had a love for music and shared the gift of her beautiful voice with so many, as she sang with St. James The Less and St. Mathias choirs. Her music touched many as she sang to celebrate weddings, lift up others in nursing homes and help families say goodbye to loved ones at funerals. Jane is preceded in death by husband, Nick Albanese. Survived by her son, Frank (Terri) Albanese; daughter, Dina (Fred) Schnitzer; former daughter-in-law, Debbie (Shaun) Frame; grandchildren, Andrea (Charlie) Deal, Christen (Aaron) McConnell, Heather (Brian) Biddle, and Natalie Schnitzer (Brandon Palumbo); great-grandchildren, McKenna, Bailee, CJ, Landon, Ashlee, and Kailynn, who will miss her everlasting love and attention.
Jane is also survived by Great Aunt, Betty Stouffer, sisters-in-law, JoAnn Pelino and Connie Concetta; and many more loved ones and extended family members. Family will receive friends 4-7 p.m. Friday, May 1, 2020, at the JOHN QUINT TREBONI FUNERAL HOME, 1177 W. 5th Ave., Columbus.
