Peacefully, passed into the arms of our loving God, our Father, on Saturday, June 2, 2018 surrounded by her loving family. Beloved wife of the late Luca (2013). Loving and devoted mother of Charles (the late Jeanne), Angie, Leny (Victoria) and nonna of Kirsten, Jennifer, Analisa, Rebecca and Alessandra.
Maria was a strong and loving mother, devoted to her late husband, children and grandchildren. Her wisdom, kindness, generosity, warm smile and tremendous presence will be sorely missed, but she will live on in their hearts forever. Maria’s culinary skills were well known, especially her famous pastries and cookies-second to none and enjoyed by all. The family will continue on with her legacy.
