We remember
Linda Mary Ferzoco
18 June 1959 – 29 July 2022
Linda was born in Toronto, the daughter of John Gennaro Ferzoco (1931-1993) and his wife Pompea (Colella) (1935-2003), who lovingly moved mountains for her. On account of a severe illness, Linda soon was living in Orillia’s Huronia Regional Centre and then, most happily, in the care of Elmira District Community Living. Though she lost the ability to speak, Linda communicated her joy when people saw how much she loved dancing, good food, watching cooking shows on TV, and working around the house.
Linda leaves behind her devoted siblings George (and Carolyn), Anna (and Craig), and Michael (and Annette); her nieces Catherine, Cristina and Lauren, and her nephew Daniel; her aunts Maria, Vincenza, and Vincenza; her cousins in Canada and in Italy (especially Tiziana, Cristina and Francesco Colella in Corfinio); and her godmother Anna Di Loreto. These family members are joined in sorrow by Linda’s loving carers in Elmira and the friends with whom she lived over the years.
There will be a visitation at the Woodbridge Chapel of Ward Funeral Home (4671 York Regional Road 7, Woodbridge, Ontario L4L 1S6) on Saturday 30 July 2022 from 11:00am to 12:00 noon, followed by a memorial service there at 12:00 noon. This will be followed by entombment that day at 1:30pm at Beechwood Cemetery (7241 Jane Street, Vaughan, Ontario L4K 1A7), and a reception afterward.
In lieu of flowers, the family hopes that you are able to make a donation to the hard-working people who lovingly cared for Linda for many years. Please give generously to Elmira District Community Living (https://www.elmiradcl.com/donate/).
Linda was a force of nature. She came a very long way over the years, and she really enjoyed life. She was deeply loved, and she will be missed: may she rest in peace.
