Lo Presti, Giovanna
We were blessed to have had our loving mother and nonna (Mamma J) in our lives for so many years, which makes it so difficult to say goodbye.
Passed away peacefully at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Hamilton, on Sunday, March 31, 2019 in her 92nd year. Predeceased by her beloved husband Antonio of 57 years (2003). Devoted mother of Frances and Vince Lo Presti and Josephine and Charles Ingraudo. Cherished grandmother of Charlie Lo Presti (Rosanna), Kathleen Guerini (Renato), Lorianne Mendola (Charlie), Joanne Gennaccaro, Cynthia Ingraudo-Bassani (Sam), Sabrina Restagno (Johnny) and Julia Pavone (Marco). Treasured great-grandmother of Charlie, Juliana, Renato, Isabella, Elisia, CJ, Carlo, Liliana, Joseph, Daniel, Julia, Antonio, Amadeo, Myla and Noah. Dear aunt of Giovanna Barrafato. She will be fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends in Canada, Italy and the US. She is now united in heaven with her predeceased family members. Giovanna immigrated from Italy, became an entrepreneur and ran a successful business in the Hamilton area with her husband. To honour Giovanna’s wishes, a Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Church, 304 Highway 8, Stoney Creek on Tuesday, April 2, 2019, at 12 noon, followed by entombment at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery in Burlington.
