Rose Scoccimarro, age 89, of West Milford, NJ, passed away peacefully on October 21, 2025. Born in Hoboken, NJ, Rose spent 55 wonderful years residing in Fairview, NJ, where she and her late husband, Giulio (“Pop Pop”), built a beautiful life together over 64 years of marriage. Giulio predeceased her in 2018.
Rose was the beloved daughter of the late Carmella and Francesco Cifarelli. She is survived by her four devoted children: Dan and Bernadette Scoccimarro, Patricia and Patrick Leahy, Camille and Thomas DeSimone, and Francine and Frank Padovan.
Affectionately known as “Mama Honey,” Rose was the cherished grandmother of ten grandchildren and the adoring great-grandmother of thirteen. She touched the lives of everyone who knew her with her warmth, humor, kindness, and generous spirit.
Rose will be forever remembered for her honesty, compassion, and willingness to help anyone in need. Her presence brought joy and comfort to all who had the privilege of knowing her.
