Stella (Madonna) Raimondo

Stella Raimondo (nee Madonna), age 97 of Kennett Square, PA, died Sunday, October 5, 2025. She was the wife of the late Silvio Raimondo who preceded her in death on August 18, 2025, having shared 77 years of marriage. She was born in Kennett Square in 1928 and was the daughter of the late Anthony and Mary Ricchiutti Madonna.

Stella was devoted to her husband, family, and home. For many years, she assisted her husband by keeping the books for the family mushroom business. She was an amazing cook and baker and nothing pleased her more than feeding friends and family.  Her home was always filled with the delicious aroma of something cooking and her grandchildren say that her meatballs and sauce were incomparable.

Stella was a lifelong parishioner of St. Patrick’s Church.  She was an avid reader and enjoyed flower gardening, crocheting afghan blankets, doing word puzzles, searching for and trying new recipes, and, most of all, spending time with her family.

Stella is survived by her children Albert (Linda), Sylvia (Charles), and Roseanne (James); as well as six grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Stella was predeceased by four brothers, Nicholas, Oleo, Danny and Anthony, and one sister, Elizabeth.
