I loved visiting my Thea Nella, Theo Jim and cousins in Toronto my whole life. Thea Nella always welcomed us with a delicious homemade meal and a "talk" about the importance of eating good food with good olive oil😊 My visits to Toronto won't be the same without her there. I will always cherish my memories of Thea and my mom around the dinner table telling us their stories and having a laugh. Rest in peace 🙏
