Nevis Perusini

Nevis Gina Perusini (nee Masotti) 

Born on January 20th, 1941, in Copper Cliff Ontario, passed away peacefully on Thursday August 29th, 2024 at the age of 83. Beloved wife of the late Rino Perusini (2020). Loving mother of Reina and Stephen. Devoted Gramma to Vienna and Gabriel. She was predeceased by her parents Vito and Dina Masotti.

Nevis was devoted to her family and had a passion for gardening. She would often be found in her garden tending to her flowers. Her green thumb will live on in all the propagated plants she has given to family and friends over the years. Nevis loved telling stories to her grandchildren filled with wisdom, humour and love which will be forever cherished. Much like Nevis cultivated flowers, she cultivated and nourished relationships. She will be greatly missed by her siblings Jenny, Edward, Gino, and Paul along with her nieces and nephews, extended family and many friends. 

Friends will be received at the Ward Funeral Home, Weston Chapel on Tuesday from 2 to 4pm and 6 to 9pm.  Funeral mass to be celebrated on Wednesday at 10am at St. Jude's Roman Catholic Church.  Interment to follow at Holy Cross Cemetery, Thornhill.

As expressions of sympathy, donations to the Ovarian Cancer Society or St. Jude's Parish would be appreciated by the family.
