Maddalena Orofino

December 9, 1933 — November 1, 2022

Maddalena Orofino, 88, passed away on Tuesday, November 1, 2022, in her home in Bound Brook surrounded by family. Born in San Costantino Albanese, Italy, Maddalena was the daughter of Vincenzo and Rosina (Brescia) Michele. Maddalena met her husband Prospero in Italy where they married and started their family. She emigrated to the United States in May of 1968, on her oldest son’s birthday. She and Prospero settled in Bound Brook where they raised their family. Maddalena worked outside the home in several factories over the years before retiring at the age of 64. Even while working, her love and focus was always on her family and her garden; from tomatoes to grapes, Maddalena tended her garden daily and dreaded when winter approached. Her homemade sauce lines the shelves of the basement and her homemade braciole was unmatched by even the finest Italian restaurants.




Maddelena was predeceased by her daughters in law, Elizabeth (Betsy) and Lynda, and her sister Angela. She is survived by her loving husband of 64 years Prospero; her sons Nicola and Vincenzo and his wife, Maria; her grandchildren James, Jennifer and Aleksander; sister Stella; brother Piedro; and many cousins, nieces, nephews and extended family members.
