In Celebration of
Filomena Sebastiano
April 15, 1943 –
June 13, 2024
With broken hearts filled with love and sadness we announce the passing of Filomena Sebastiano (nee Siena) at the age of 81 years.
Beloved wife of Pasquale of 63 years, cherished mother to Vince (Lily), Mary (Stratis), Lucy (Manuel) and Gianna (Bill). She was the deeply loved and adored Nonna of her nine grandchildren, Adam, Stephanie (Nelson), Peter (Laura), Marcus (Kelsey), Patrick, Maximus, William, Cecilia, and Vida.
Daughter of the late Giovanni and Lucia Siena, and daughter-in-law to the late Vincenzo and Filomena Sebastiano. Sister to the late Michele (Anna), Matteo (Josephine) and Pasquale and survived by her sister Maria (Frank). She will also be missed by many brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law and nieces and nephews.
Filomena was born April 15, 1943, in San Giovanni Rotondo, Foggia, Italy and came to Canada in 1957 to forge a new life. She was a woman who was completely selfless, strong, and compassionate who loved to have a treat with her coffee. She loved to sew, and her culinary skills were bare-none, but her passion was her family. She openly and graciously gave love, support, and guidance in abundance. Everyone who knew her knew how kind and giving she was. She has joined her parents and brothers alongside our Lord, but the hole she has left in our hearts and our family will never heal, our pain is insurmountable.
Visitation will be held at Bay Gardens Funeral Home, 947 Rymal Road E, Hamilton, on Monday, June 17, from 1 – 4 pm and 6 – 9 pm. A vigil prayer will begin at 4 pm. Funeral mass will take place at Annunciation of Our Lord, 280 Limeridge Rd W, Hamilton, on Tuesday, June 18 at 10 am. Entombment to follow at Bayview Cemetery, 740 Spring Gardens Rd, Burlington.
Ma – your spirit will live on, and you will never be forgotten in our hearts and minds and there will always be memories we will share of you, but your legacy will live on through your grandchildren.
Legacy of Love
A wife, a mother, a grandma too,
This is the legacy we have from you.
You taught us love and how to fight,
You gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stronger person would be hard to find,
And in your heart, you were always kind.
You fought for us all in one way or another,
Not just as a wife not just as a mother.
For all of us you gave your best,
Now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace, you’ve earned your sleep,
Your love in our hearts, we’ll eternally keep.
