She was the beloved wife of the late Gildo Abbonizio. Cherished mother of Pola Andrews of Saugus, MA and adored grandmother of Paul and his fiancé Jessica, Jacqueline and David.
Ines was born in Augusta, Sicily on January 17, 1924 to the late Rosario and Rosaria (Tringali) Pugliares. She was predeceased by all five of her siblings whom she adored. Ines is survived by a dear sister in law, Grazia. She leaves behind many loved nieces and nephews and their families, both locally and in Italy. She also leaves behind dear friends who became family.
Ines was known as a gifted seamstress, an avid cook, and an outgoing and loving person. She could fill a room with her “hello” and was truly a bit of Sicilian sunshine in the lives of all she loved. She treasured time spent with her family, friends, and in particular, her grandchildren.
Ines had a deep faith, a devotion to the Madonna, and a positive outlook on life that was unsurpassed. Her heart was full of gratitude for all the good in her life, no matter how small.
The family wishes to thank all her wonderful caregivers who ensured that she was always comfortable and well cared for.
As we celebrate her life, we ask that you spend time with a loved one and create a memory you’ll never forget. That is the greatest lesson Ines left us.
