Jane H. Levinson

Jane (Hollett) Levinson, 94, of Wilmington, DE, passed away peacefully on May 10, 2025.

A lifelong Wilmingtonian, she grew up in The Triangle on W. 23^rd St. and graduated from P.S. DuPont High School.

She met her husband Stanley on a blind date, and they were happily married for over forty years until his death in 2000.  They owned Matson Run Convenience Store, at Matson Run Parkway and Washington St., and were a neighborhood fixture.

In retirement she stayed busy, active and independent.  You could find her at Kirkwood Fitness on Naamans Rd., handing out free samples at ShopRite on 202 or volunteering at Wilmington Hospital.

Known for her feistiness, she will be remembered as a woman who loved her family, made her own rules, and lived life to the fullest until the very end.

She was predeceased by her husband Stanley, her only son Larry and her sister Doris (Hollett) Budner.

She is survived by her daughter-in-law Anda, three granddaughters Karla (Alex), Julia Tieste (Jason) and Linda (Andrei), four great-grandchildren and a handful of loving nieces.

The family wishes to thank the staff at Lodge Lane Assisted Living and The Kutz Home for taking such good and loving care of their Bubbie during the last four years of her life.

There will be a small graveside memorial on Friday, October 10, 2025 at 2 pm at The Jewish Community Cemetery, 401 Foulk Rd., Wilmington, DE 19803.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Kutz Senior Living, 704 River Rd., Wilmington, DE 19809.
