Trevisan, Nancy/Nunziatina (nee Viola)
Nancy passed away peacefully surrounded by family on Sunday, October 10, 2021. She was the beloved mother of Louise (Arthur) Quinn and Albert (Cindy) Trevisan. Cherished nana of Kathleen and Julia (Brennan) Quinn and Aiden Trevisan. Dear sister of Fernando Viola, Nora (John) Majik and aunt to Sarah (Michael) Majik. Predeceased by her parents Mario and Elda (Palombella) Viola, and her brother, Domenic Viola.
Nancy was born in Gagliano Aterno, a small village in the Abruzzi region of Italy on December 1, 1936. Her early life shaped her into a kind and compassionate person – truly one of a kind. She loved her family unconditionally, supported all of their endeavours and ensured that they never forgot to “take it easy” along the way. Nancy was rarely without a smile on her face, always offering a story, a song or a tidbit of life’s wisdom. A philosopher at heart, she taught us by example to always be kind to others, take life as it came and focus on better days ahead.
She will be remembered by many as the provider of blankets, sweaters and socks, regardless of need. Nancy always ensured that everyone was nourished, whether by her delicious food or simply the warmth of her heart. Her joyous soul will be dearly missed, though her loved ones will try to respect her wishes to continue to celebrate her life rather than grieve it.
