Obituary for Elvia Tognazzini (nee Tolari)
Psalm 23-Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Elvia Tognazzini passed away peacefully on Friday, March 31, 2017 at the George Boyack Care Centre. She was born in Vico Pancellorum, Bagni di Lucca, Italy on July 25, 1924. Elvia married the love of her life Roberto Tognazzini. Then in 1954 Roberto, his brother Aldo, and their father Eugenio immigrated to Canada and settled in Calgary. One year later Elvia, her daughter Paola, her sister Lilia and their mother Rosalba joined them and lived together in Bridgeland. In 1960, the family welcomed the addition of Elvia and Roberto’s son Mario. By 1973 sadly, illness took the lives of Roberto, Eugenio and Aldo leaving Elvia and her sister widowed. This brought the two sisters and their mother even closer to one another. Elvia and Lilia formed and indelible bond, which saw them through the rest of their lives together, including the passing of Rosalba in 1990 and Lilia in 2013. Family and friends were everything to Elvia. She is survived by her daughter Paola; son Mario; and grandchildren, Robin (sons Zachary and Benjamin) Liza (daughter Cooper), Jamie and Ryan. Elvia was a woman of tremendous faith and we know that she is at home in the house of the Lord. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the staff of the George Boyack Care Centre (2nd floor North). To Elvia our loving mother you will be in our hearts forever.
