It is with heavy hearts we mourn the passing of our mother Giustina (Romana) Pellegrini. She was days away from her 95th birthday, a day she had planned to celebrate with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchild. She was a fighter, she was our fighter, but this was one she didn’t win. We always felt she would sail past 100, and now she will do so in our hearts, and in the memories of her love for all of her family. Mom dedicated her life to her husband Elli, who predeceased her in 2005, followed him to Canada in 1954 and helped him build a life for themselves and their three children as immigrants to a land where language and customs were all to be learned by native Italians.
She is survived by her children Sandra (Nick) Ford, Sylvia (Todd) Wilson, Marco (Nathalie) Pellegrini, grandchildren Alanna (Daniel) Fiuza, Alex Tersigni, Andi (Li) Wilson, Nicolas Wilson, Nathan Pellegrini and great-grandson Theodore Fiuza.
Further to our mom’s wishes the family will hold a private ceremony in her loving memory.
In lieu of flowers donations to McMaster Children’s Hospital will be greatly appreciated.
Rest In Peace Mom, we love you, and miss you.
