Obituary for Giuseppina Grande (Mauro)
GIUSEPPINA GRANDE
Peacefully on Monday, July 13, 2020 at Concordia Hospital with family by her side, Giuseppina Grande (nee Mauro) passed away at the age of 99 years.
She was predeceased by her beloved husband, Francesco Grande in 2000; sisters Veronica, Giovanna, Quintina, and brother, Antonio. She will be sadly missed by her children, Pietro, Angelina and husband Francesco Vaccaro, Maria and husband Antonio Anania; grandchildren: Angie, Pina (Marcello), Frank, Domenic (Ashley), Mario (Candace), Frank (Paige), Christina (Nathan); great-grandchildren: Sofia, Lina, Luca, Angelina, and Franco. She also leaves to mourn her sister Angelina and brother-in-law Francesco Scarpino of Italy, brother-in-law Giuseppe Cosentino of Montreal; and numerous nephews, nieces, and friends.
Grandma was born in Amato, Italy on August 24, 1920. She immigrated to Canada in 1956 with her children to join her husband. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She enjoyed spending time with her family and was always happy to see us. She loved cooking and sewing, keeping in touch with family and friends on the telephone. Cards and letters she wrote to her family and friends will always be treasured.
Grandma was so faithful; we believe it was her faith that got her through hard times. Watching Mass was part of Grandma’s daily routine. She was blessed to receive Communion every Sunday.
She will always be remembered and forever missed.
Due to COVID restrictions and social distancing regulations a private Mass of the Resurrection will be celebrated on Tuesday, July 21, 2020 at 11:00 a.m. with Reverend Father Sam Argenziano officiating in Holy Rosary Roman Catholic Church, 510 River Avenue. Private viewing will commence at 10:30 a.m. For those who would like to join in the funeral, a livestream will be available on Holy Rosary Church’s website. Entombment to follow in the Chapel of Eternal Memories Mausoleum located in Waverley Memorial Gardens, 1501 Waverley Street.
Pallbearers will be grandsons: Frank, Domenic, Mario, Frank, Marcello, and Nathan.
Vi ricordiamo sempre e per sempre ci mancherai.
Dio che ti benedici.
Sei sempre nel nostro cuore.
