We are so sorry to hear of Lena's passing. She was a wonderful person and a great neighbor. She always had time for a visit and was interested to hear how our family was doing. It has been a long time since I talked to her but think of her fondly, Our sympathy goes out to all the family. Marilyn and Jim Kent.

We are heartbroken at the loss of Pasqualina. It is so hard to believe that after 53 years of friendship between our families that she is no longer with us. We are so grateful to have lived next door to her for over 30 years. We have seen each other through the best and worst of times, and as our hearts break for you and all your family, so too it breaks for us, knowing that we'll never hear Comare's laughter, see her smile, or have another cup of coffee or shot of brandy with her. Memories we will treasure, always. Though the loss of Pasqualina is deep and heart felt we are at peace knowing that she has finally reunited with Compare Antonio on the other side. We pray that the Lord give you all strength and courage in these difficult times and know that friendship and shared memories will always keep her close to us. With deep love and condolences – Cira, Antonella, Pietro, Guiseppe, & Vincenzo Borriello.

Dear Celestina and family,

My sincerest condolences on the loss of your beautiful Mom. May she rest in peace and may God bless and comfort you all during this most difficult time. Many prayers for you and your family. Baci e abbracci.

Teresa Cusano & family

Rita, Rosanna, Pasquale and Celestina,

We are so very sad to hear of your mom's passing.

Our families growing up together, Pasqualina was always a part of our get togethers.

Whenever we were at the Sangregorio's, we knew the Amatori's would be there too!

Your mom's baking was always outstanding and the ever present smile on her face was

contagious.

You and your families are all in our prayers,

Sincerely,

Annette Valerio, Adrian Valerio and Adele Zuchetto

My dearest friend Rosanna. We understand what life is about but nonetheless, it is so difficult when a Mom has moved on to a better place, no matter how old we are, we are always children in their hearts and that's how we typically think of ourselves in that relationship. When your Mom passed, memories started flooding in. We would play when we were knee-high and your Mom always had that extra eye on us and my Mom didn't have to worry. Everyday, your Mom would walk to your Zia Filomena's house, at least, a couple of times a day, passing our home. She always said that hello and say "vado da Filomena a prendere un caffè, altrimenti doveva prendere qualcosa". Your Mom was always busy, busy, busy and now that I reflect on it, they certainly were of that generation, that is fading. These are the precious times, that we unfortunately, remember at these times. Of course, sincerest of condolences and forever best wishes and strength moving forward, to your large families. Your Mom is now with God, whom she deeply worshipped and loved with all her might, all her life and that's where she wanted to be. Luv Luisa and Angela Pacione, 'the neighbor in the middle.'

We were all "saddened" by the passing of your beloved Mamma.

Our families had so many great memories. Our mamma had always spoken to your Mom and they shared a special bond. So grateful GOD put these Souls together now.

Find your memories to carry you all and find some peace.

On behalf of my family and brothers,

I was deeply saddened to hear about Lina’s passing, but I know she had been reunited with her dear husband. It was a pleasure getting to know her and meeting her wonderful family. I will miss laughing with her. My thoughts are with all of you during this difficult time. Love, Sarah (Airdrie Care Community)

Our deepest condolences to the family, she was a beautiful lady inside and out, remembering all the things she did for the church. She welcomed me with open hands. Sincerely yours Linda & Pasquale Pollera
