The family of Maria Melideo (née Paglia) is saddened to announce the passing of Maria, age 96, who decided her time was all done on earth and departed peacefully on May 17, 2025, in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.
She was born on March 4, 1929, in Ferrazzana, Campobasso, Italy. She was the second oldest of her eight siblings. It was there she met and married her soulmate, Michele, the boy next door. She left Italy to come and join her husband in their new home and country, arriving in Canada on November 22, 1952, with their four month old baby Anna Maria.
Her heritage was still celebrated by drinking espresso every morning, cooking, making bread, and celebrating feast days, as well as in her membership at the Davinci.
She lived a long and meaningful life rooted in faith. A devoted Roman Catholic, Maria found great comfort in reading the Bible, praying the rosary and being a member of the Catholic Women’s League in her younger days. Her spiritual devotion was a guiding light throughout her life and a source of strength for those around her.
A skilled seamstress by trade, Maria took pride in her work and the care she put into every stitch. She was also creative with her knitting and crocheting. Her hands not only created garments but also held generations of family close with warmth and love.
Maria was predeceased by her loving husband Michele and six of her siblings. She was a proud mother to her daughters Anna and Laura. Her legacy continues through her six grandchildren and her numerous great-grandchildren, all of whom brought immense joy to her life. She was deeply proud of her role as both Mamma and Nonna, cherishing every moment spent with her family.
May her memory bring comfort to those who knew and loved her. A visitation will be held on May 21, 2025, from 6pm to 7pm at The Westfort Chapel located at 420 West Gore St at James. Maria’s life will be honoured in a funeral mass held at St Agnes Roman Catholic Church on May 22, 2025 at 10am located at 1019 Brown St.
A special thank you to the staff on Tulip at Hogarth Riverview Manor who took care of her the last few years.
Arrangements have been entrusted to the EVEREST – WESTFORT CHAPEL, 420 West Gore Street, Thunder Bay.
