In memory of

Rosa Paglialunga

Rosa passed away on April 8, 2019 at St. Mary's General Hospital, Kitchener. Left to mourn her passing is her devoted husband John, who will treasure their endless bond of love and friendship that lasted over sixty years. Rosa also leaves behind her loving children, Tony (Sara) and Maria Turco (Joe) as well as her precious grandchildren Melissa, Jonathan, Michael, Daniel, and Luca, who will always cherish the special memories of her generosity and her unconditional love. All of her extended family and friends will greatly miss her warmth, kindness, and gentleness.

Friends and family will be received at Pine Hills Cemetery & Funeral Centre at 625 Birchmount Rd., Scarborough on Wednesday April 10, 2019 from 2pm to 4pm and 7pm to 9pm. The funeral service will start at 11am on Thursday April 11, 2019 with interment to follow.

The family would like to thank everyone including the doctors and nurses who provided care and comfort to Rosa while at the hospital.
As an expression of sympathy, donations to Diabetes Canada or the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be greatly appreciated.
