It is with deep sorrow that Anthony and Sal announce that their wonderful mother Mary passed away peacefully surrounded by family on April 21, 2024. Mary was the beloved wife of Willam (deceased). Mary was 94.

Mary was a rare and wonderful person. She found joy in everything she did and everyone she knew. Never judgmental; never an unkind word; unselfish to a fault. She devoted her life to her family, friends and anyone who needed help. Everyone’s needs always came before her own. If you were lucky enough to know Mary, you were better for it. You had a friend for life. She was loved by everyone she touched.

Mary will be sadly missed by her sons, daughters-in-law Jennifer, Marni and Elana and grandchildren Brian (Laura), Lindsay (Jarrad), Stephanie (Tanio), Daniel (Brie) and Avery who all loved her so much. Mary will also be greatly missed by her dear brothers and sister in Italy: Liborio, Claudio and Lucretia.

Our family owes a tremendous debt of thanks to the caring nurses and PSWs at Queens Estate Nursing Home. Finally we will be forever grateful to our mother’s care givers Menchie Balmores and Pearl Francia for their loving care and companionship.

Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Pius X Catholic Church (2305 Bloor Street West) Toronto, on Thursday, April 25, 2024 at 10:30 am. A livestream button for those unable to attend will appear shortly.

As an expression of sympathy, donations to the Canadian Food for Children would be greatly appreciated.
