It is with deep sorrow we announce the passing of our beautiful mother, wife, sister, and Nonna Maria. She passed away very peacefully in Prayer and holding her husband Tony’s hand. She will be embraced by God and will join her beloved mother Anna Maria, father Martino, grandson Franco, and niece Liana who will be waiting with loving open arms. She leaves behind her husband Antonio “Tony”, daughters Enrica (Danilo) and Anna (Bob), son Angelo, grandchildren Matthew (Karissa), Anthony, Jordan, Sofia and Marco, sisters Rosanna and Silvia (Louie). She was very spiritual and truly angelic, her amazing dedication to family, her kind soul and the power of her love will live on forever in our hearts. We will miss her deeply, but her spirit will always surround us. Visitation to be held from 3-4pm on Saturday, November 5, 2022 at Bell and Burnaby Funeral Chapel, 4276 Hastings St. Burnaby.
