It is with heavy heart that I share the news of my mother Catinca Badescu's passing on April 26th, 2024. She was the most caring and loving woman who took care of everyone around her. She loved to travel (especially to Cuba, her favourite place), she was passionate about life long learning and always worked hard to make life better for her family. She is survived by her daughter Bianca and son-in-law Dennis and will be greatly missed by family and friends. While we are immensely saddened by her passing, we take comfort in knowing she is no longer suffering. We will remember all of the wonderful happy moments that she brought to our lives forever. Dad is waiting for you in heaven.
