Obituary
Beloved wife of 56 years to the late Edmondo, loving mother to Ivano (Lidia) and Maria (the late husband Donald), proud Nonna to Brittany and Amanda. Sister to the late Felichette, Gabriello, Pascalino, and will also be missed by many special nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Giuseppina will always be remembered for her contagious smile, warm heart and her gourmet Italian meals. She had a passion for cooking and could always be found in the kitchen cooking up a storm for her family and friends to enjoy. She never allowed food to go to waste, especially by her granddaughters.
Giuseppina enjoyed her working years at Laura Secord. Her children recall fond memories of coming home to endless amounts of chocolate that filled their cantina.
She loved to spend her summers with her granddaughters and enjoyed taking them to Riverdale Park and bringing them both for ice cream and doughnuts on the Danforth.
Those who lived on Millbrook would remember Giuseppina as a staple to their community. Everyone who passed by her home knew her and would always stop by to say hello. She was always such a warm and welcoming woman, who cared for people deeply.
An extended gratitude to the devoted nurses and support staff who cared for Giuseppina for the past 10 years at Houses of Providence, Spruce Wing second floor. Your patience, care and support will always be remembered and appreciated.
If desired, donations can be made to The Houses of Providence.
