IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Jane
Inferrera
December 21, 1930 – August 27, 2025
Jane Inferrera, 94, of Naples, Florida, passed away peacefully on August 27, 2025, in California, surrounded by her children and loving family. Born December 21, 1930, in Vineland, NJ, to Connie and Joseph Napoli, Jane was a Vineland resident for over 60 years. She graduated from Sacred Heart High School, married John Inferrera, and raised four children. Once their children were grown, she pursued her ambition and opened her own real estate business, Star Realty, in Vineland.
Her most joyful moments in business were helping numerous people realize their dream to purchase their first home. Jane served as President of the Board of Realtors and later moved to Brigantine, NJ, where she continued her real estate career, eventually relocating to Naples, Florida. Her dedication and success in the field earned her several awards in real estate, highlighting her exceptional people and business skills.
In addition to her real estate accomplishments, Jane was a talented artist who won several awards in art shows, showcasing her passion for painting and drawing. She was so loved by everyone who met her—a pillar of strength, known for her wisdom and unconditional love, she was a source of inspiration for many.
A lover of music, Jane enjoyed playing the piano and singing, especially opera. She cherished traveling and occasionally visiting casinos for the entertainment. She was an unbeatable player at family card games and her prowess at 135 made her a formidable opponent. Most of all, she loved spending time with her family and will be sadly missed.
Jane is survived by her children: Jeanne Bertoia, John Inferrera, Jacqueline Hesketh (Peter), and Jeffrey Inferrera (Elena). Her legacy lives on through her grandchildren: Lauren Bertoia Costanza (Joseph), Michael Bertoia (Erika), Melissa Inferrera, John Inferrera (Paityn), Alex Hesketh, Evangelina Hesketh, Christopher Inferrera, Jeffrey Inferrera (Annie), Augustine Inferrera (Sarah), Maria Inferrera, John Inferrera (Coleen), Elena Inferrera, Kateri Inferrera, 11 great-grandchildren, and one sister, MaryAnne DeLuise.
She is preceded in death by her loving husband of 50 years, John Inferrera, her parents, Connie and Joseph Napoli; sister, Lucille Luisi, brothers Frank and Angelo Napoli, son-in-law, Bill Bertoia and her companion of 17 years, Dr. Elwood John Young of Naples, Florida.
Our heartfelt thanks go to her daughter-in-law Elena, granddaughter Maria, as well as caregiver Noemi for their loving care of Jane.
