Obituary of Angela Mazzonna
MAZZONNA, Angela (née Antonini) – On Tuesday, December 24, Christmas Eve, 2019 Angela Mazzonna left us for her new home with God. To her family she was known as Angelina, born on January 23, 1928, the youngest daughter of six children in the town of Poggio Nativo, Italy. Married in 1950 she worked in Rome along with her husband Luigi (deceased Dec.19, 2010), and together in 1959 they immigrated to Canada with their two sons, Emilio and Giancarlo. Soon after she worked in factories, and always enjoyed it, especially the camaraderie with people from all over the world, whether packaging meats at Caldwell Foods, cookies at Primo Biscuits, or toys at Levy Industries’ toy factory. She also became a silk screener at Argo Bowling, and for many years until her retirement in 1993, worked at York University as a Custodian. Angelina always demonstrated a quiet wisdom, somehow being very perceptive, bridging her past experience and observations when giving advice to her family. And for all 60 years in Canada she took great pride in cooking the foods from her Italian region while embracing the ideas from not just other parts of Italy but from the modern chefs performing in her favorite television shows.
Beloved mother-in-law to Emilio’s wife Judith Morris and Giancarlo’s wife Cyndy Dunn, and loving ‘Nonna’, she wanted nothing more than visits together with her extended family including grandson Alexander and his mother Angela (née Indovina), granddaughters Alison, Heather, Kristen, grandson Gianluca and his sister Milena (Canizares).
Family and friends will be received on Monday, December 30, 2019 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the R.S. Kane Funeral Home (6150 Yonge St., at Goulding, south of Steeles). A Funeral Mass will be held on Tuesday, December 31, 2019 at 10 a.m. at St. Joseph the Worker Church (191 Wade Gate, Thornhill). Entombment to follow at Westminster Cemetery.
