Pizziola, Rosanna (Dalla Lana)
Passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, November 21, 2020, at the age of 84.
Beloved wife of the late Giovanni Pizziola (2017). Loving mother of Daniela (Jim Prigione), Luciana (Bill Bushey), Gabriela, Lino (Patricia Stokes), Guido and Diana (Gus Michalopoulos). Dear Nonna of Daniel (Chantelle), Matthew (Paige), James (Alexandra), Alessandra (Cameron), Nathan (Lauren), Natassja, Aleksei, Giovanni, Aleck, Zach, and Dominic and Bis-nonna of Emmett and Nicholas. Predeceased by her loving parents Amaglia and Guido Dalla Lana, her dear sister Silvana Bedin (late Luigi) and brother Fernando Dalla Lana (Anna). Remembered by many in-laws in Italy and the late Maria Zaniol (late Guiseppe) and Bertilla (Giacomo) in Ontario. Rosanna will be missed by her many nieces and nephews.
Throughout her hard-fought battle with cancer, mom always kept a positive attitude – “I’m okay” – never complaining. A special thank you to all who called or came to visit, and especially Maria and Gino Brombal, for their friendship and love during this time. Mom will be remembered for her baking; especially her orange cookies and her “pound” cake, frowning upon anyone who measured the ingredients. At Christmas time, she taught many people how to make her famous torrone. Christmas will not be the same without mom’s homemade lasagna. She spent many hours knitting and sewing, and we
will miss her knitted slippers. Mom loved being surrounded by her family especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren; she was the best babysitter in the world. We love you.
Thank you to the nurses, PSW’s and the LHIN who cared for and supported our mom throughout this difficult time.
