Jean M. (Mulvihill) Conte, 88, of Cranberry Township, formerly of Greensburg, died Wednesday, December 06, 2023 peacefully surrounded by her family in the Oak Grove Center at Sherwood Oaks, Cranberry Twp. She was born August 18, 1935, in Pittsburgh, a daughter of the late Edward and Marie (Enright) Mulvihill. Jean graduated from Mt. Alvernia High School and went on to work at PPG until she married the love of her life Robert in 1959. They settled in Greensburg, where they raised their 6 children. While her husband, Dr. Robert R. Conte built a successful medical practice in Latrobe, Jean quietly and faithfully tended to raising their children and making a home. Jean was active in many charities including years with the Latrobe Hospital Aid Society. She spent countless hours volunteering her time at Caritas Christi. A founding member of St. Gianna Society at her parish, Jean tirelessly advocated for the miracle of new life. As a longtime member at Our Lady of Grace Church in Greensburg, Jean was a lector and was involved in RCIA along with several other Church ministries. Jean enjoyed spending time with her many friends where she participated in numerous activities ranging from book clubs to dancing. By far her most treasured times spent were with her family, especially her children and grandchildren. Nana took charge at bath times, got on the floor to play, and when she took you to the playground, she didn't sit on the park bench, she went down the slides with you. Holidays at Nana's brought much laughter and joy...they were legendary. Jean is preceded in death by her parents Edward and Marie; sister, Margaret Dunbar; brother, Jack and several other extended family members. Jean is survived by her loving and devoted husband of 64 years Robert, her 6 children, Gary Conte (Susan), Lisa Barngrover (Mark), Greg Conte (Debra), Lori McStravick, Donna Biss (Joe) and Diana Rigby (Jim), 17 grandchildren, Tessa (Tyler), Natalia, Nick, Alex, Zac (Hannah), Jackson, Olivia, Adriana, Ava, Luke, Brenna, Lily, Connor, Maggie, Will, Dean and Mitchell, and two great grandchildren, Savannah and Grayson. Jean is also survived by her beloved sister Betty McPoland, brothers in law Frank Conte and James Conte (Katie), sister-in-law Angela Conte; and countless friends. Relatives and friends are invited to gather in the Our Lady of Grace Church, 1011 Mt. Pleasant Rd., Greensburg, Monday from 10 to 11 a.m. Jean’s funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11 a.m. in the Church. Entombment will follow in Mary, Mother of Mercy Mausoleum at St. Vincent, Latrobe.
