Nadine Louise Cimoli, 85, completed her journey here on earth on Wednesday, March 2, 2023, in the thoughtful care of El Rio Memory Care Community.  She went home to be with the Lord and was reunited with her loving parents, James and Ida Mae Elliott; her sister, Ada Reynolds; and her husband, Benjamin Cimoli. 

   A lifelong resident of Manteca, Nadine was born on March 9, 1937, in Lathrop, California, and attended Manteca High School and Modesto Junior College. 

   She married the love of her life, Benjamin Cimoli in 1958. They had three sons and lived on various USAF bases in California and Japan throughout Ben’s deployment with the United States Air Force.   

   Nadine worked as a lab technician for Eckert Cold Storage until her retirement in 2000. Even after retirement, Nadine stayed active and busy, working the front desk at Del Webb Community Center for many years. She was also a member of the Waterloo Bocci Club. A woman of faith, Nadine was a lifetime member of St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Manteca.    Nadine’s greatest joy was raising her sons and ensuring each of them and her grandchildren had an abundance of love. She certainly succeeded in that. She will be greatly missed by her three sons, Steven (Debra) Cimoli of Modesto; Michael (Marisela) Cimoli of Modesto; and Kevin (Jamie) Cimoli of Waterford. She leaves behind eight grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, with one on the way, and her sister, Ruby Cardinal of Lexington, OK. 

   A Funeral Mass will be held at 11:30 a.m. on Monday, March 13, 2023, at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church, 505 E. North St., Manteca, CA 95336. Following the Mass, Nadine will be laid to rest at St. John’s Catholic Cemetery, 17871 Carrolton Rd., (HWY 120), Escalon, CA 95320.
