Rosemarie was born in Philadelphia, PA on April 6, 1941. She was one of five daughters: Frances Castrataro, Joanne Cirillo, Rita Clavin and Donna Shisler, born to the late Charles and Rose Valinoto.
While working at Curtis Publishing, she met the love of her life, the late Edward Johnston (deceased 2008). Together they relocated to Williamstown, NJ and shared three beautiful children, as well as many years of happiness and love. They later relocated their family to South Florida and built a life where Rosemarie served as a dedicated wife and mother. Rosemarie’s greatest accomplishment was her beautiful family. She adored her children and grandchildren and served as an incredibly strong mother and grandmother.
Rosemarie is survived by children; Edward (Maria) Johnston, Mark Johnston, and Michael (Lisa) Johnston, 7 grandchildren and a great grandchild; loving sisters, Rita Clavin and Donna Shisler.
Rosemarie is also survived by many loving nieces and nephews. Rosemarie will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
