Germaine Rotondella Grossi, 77, born November 6, 1948, in Hoboken, NJ, passed away peacefully surrounded by family at home in Hidden Hills, CA on January 21, 2026. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and a beloved presence to many.
The daughter of an Italian-born father and a Pennsylvania-born mother, Germaine was one of seven children.
Germaine met her husband Len as teenagers, and they shared 63 years together, married for 57 of those years. Family was always her priority, and she expressed love through care, inclusion, and bringing people together. She was known for her strength, warmth, honesty, and loyalty, and many considered her a second mother.
Germaine’s legacy lives on through her family, the traditions she created, the values she instilled, and the many people who felt welcomed, supported, and loved in her presence.
She is survived by her husband Len; her sons Lenny (wife, Kira) and Steven (wife, Nikki); her grandchildren Olivia, Alexandra, Hannah, and Leonard; her siblings Vita, Janet, and Frankie; and extended family and friends.
