Mary my beautiful friend of 28 years and many more to come. My condolences to you and your family. There are no words that can express how very sorry I am for your loss. I hope these words will be of some comfort to you.
Your mom is in peace now God Bless her soul, and is with Pat and all the Angels. Maybe your mom will bump in to my mom up there in heaven, and give my mom a big hug from me and tell her how much I miss her. As much as we miss them we having to keep telling ourselves that they are in a better place . They are with God.
Love You
Nellie
Zia Maria RIP my sweet aunt. My deepest condolences to my uncle Michele and my dear cousins, Mary, Nick and Vincenza. I will always cherish the memories that I have of your mother, they are dear to me. She became my surrogate mother when my own mother passed away. I am sure they are reunited in heaven right now.
To my dear cousins you know that I will always be here for you whenever you need me.
Love Lucia

My condelences to you and your family.❤️
Thinking of you with love,
Maria Catania
Maria was truly a wonderful woman who, along with her husband, made us feel immediately at home in the neighbourhood when we moved in about five years ago. Her generosity and warmth and kindness and frankness and gentle humour helped make up for the difficulty we sometimes had communicating our thoughts to each other in English, because I don't have the pleasure of speaking Italian! I was so touched when she offered to watch our children when they got off the bus shortly after we came to Alderwood; we barely knew each other then, but, yet, she was willing to help us. I wish now I'd taken her up on her invitation to come over for an espresso, or an alcoholic drink. Instead the kids and I sat on their porch from time to time in the afternoon, or we visited her when she made tomato sauce in the early mornings in the garage with Mike and I'm so glad that we took the time to get to know "the queen of the neighbourhood," whom everyone reveres for her goodness. We'll miss her!
