On October 21, 2020, Imogene Kosak (Jeannie), passed-away in North Cape May, NJ at Victoria Manor on October 22, 2020. She was born July 21, 1941 in Nueces, Texas to parents, J.D. Carriker and Janette V. Mayers Carriker. She was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother. Imogene was preceded in death by her husband, Richard J. Kosak, with whom she raised two children, Richard J Kosak Jr and Tina September Kosak, who sadly, also passed before her. She is survived by her seven grandchildren: Justin R Rovira, Shannon Remey Johnson, David Remey, Brittany Kosak, Leanna Fasano, John Camara and Hannah Camera. She is also survived by seven great grandchildren: Dylan Rovira, Julian Rovira, Ja’Niyah Johnson, Caleb, Nathan and Oliver Remey and Baby Thomas. Imogene was an inventor and in 1986 she patented her idea of a heating and cooling device for use in therapeutic treatment for minor aches, pains, and athletic wounds. She also possessed a tough and proud entrepreneurial spirit, that led her to own and manage several successful businesses in Cape May County, (mainly Cape May). She owned Victorian Movie Rental in West Cape May, during the late 80’s to early 90’s, after which she operated the Sunset Beach Grill, for a period in the mid 90’s. She later enjoyed owning and operating Village Bakery, in the Washington Commons of Cape May. She enjoyed her time baking goods and bread, which she also delivered to many of the most frequented restaurants in Cape May and the Wildwoods. Having owned and lived in several Historic Victorian homes in Cape May, she graciously shared her stories of hauntings, (experienced by herself, family and guests alike), which are recorded in the locally popular book, “Cape May Ghost Stories”. Jeannie had a passion for collecting beautiful stones, especially large amethyst clusters. She also enjoyed developing and caring for beautiful rose gardens, as well as the art of oil painting, sunsets, photography, and Monday night football. She was well known for her audacious nature within the business community, as well as her kind and loving spirit, which she shared with her family, friends, and pets. Her presence will be missed, but not soon forgotten, in the everlasting impression of her passion for life and the many shared and fond memories, which shall be cherished by those who loved her most.
