Dear Cavallo Family, We are saddened that beautiful Hulda has passed away. May you all take comfort that she is no longer suffering and know that she is with your father. May she rest in peace.
Our deepest condolences to Cathy, Vince, Rosie and Lorie and your families.
With all our love Chris and Carla Marcone and Family
I haven’t the words to express my sorrow at hearing of her passing! I can say that she was always so sweet to me growing up on Albertus
Rosie, Vince and family, my deepest condolence to you and your family. See will be greatly missed.
We are so sorry to hear about your sweet mother’s passing but we know heaven gained an angel. She leaves behind a beautiful family and a legacy of kindness and compassion. Sending you all our prayers and hugs. May she reunite her dear Cosimo and watch over you all each day.
Rosie and family. I think your mom and I would have been besties. She had the perfect combination of cheek and charm. So many “oldies” disengage from society and stop caring about things. Not Hulda. She was even a faithful listener to my radio show and one of our most regular Facebook posters. Heck – my dad can’t even spell Facebook, let alone use a computer.
So here’s to a woman who is an example to all of us. Enjoy life to its fullest and to the end. Care deeply but don’t take things too seriously. Learn, love, and laugh. And maybe throw in a swear word once in a while – just to keep everyone on their toes.
Your family was truly blessed to have such a woman in your lives. I wish she had been in mine!

I am sorry for your loss and sorrow and confident of the fact she is looking over all of you and smiling over all the happy times you all shared.
She will be missed by so many 💔. R. I. P.
My mother-in-law was a person who I loved to talk to for hours. She was wise, caring and had an amazing sense of humour. I’m going to miss her so much. The familiar sound of her voice and her beautiful face will both live inside my heart forever. Ti ho sempre voluto bene a modo mio, un po’ in silenzio, forse, e la tua triste assenza la sentirò per il resto della mia vita. God bless you, mom. I’m going to miss you so much.

I’ve known Mrs. Cavallo since I was a child and she was a mother to everyone. She was ALWAYS so gracious and welcoming and made everyone feel at home. When Rosie went on holiday for a week, I worked at the door company AND went home to dinner every night at the Cavallos! Mrs. Cavallo never once said ‘what are you doing here?” She just put out a plate and fed me.
She had a gentle, calm nature that would reel you in and then her mischievous spark would knock you back. But she was always kind.
She was effervescent. With a twinkle in her eye she dazzled everyone she met.
She will be greatly missed by everyone and my condolences to her family. You were very blessed to have her as a mom and I’m sure she will forever be in your hearts.
You will be missed, but never forgotten ❤️
Rosie, Lori, Vince and family, That is a beautiful picture of your mom and exactly how I will always remember her, that beautiful smile. She will be missed. Tina, myself and my family send our deepest condolences and our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
We are so sad to hear that your mom has passed. She was a wonderful kindhearted woman. Always with a beautiful smile and so welcoming. This happened so fast and we still cannot believe it. I know that your father is waiting in heaven for her so they can be together again and that makes me smile. May God open His arms and welcome her in so they can be at peace. She will be missed. Our deepest condolences to you all. Cathy, she missed you ! Tony & Teresa Sarracini
So sorry to learn about Hulda’s death. I remember her as a sweet and gentle person, being kind to all around her. We will deeply miss her at our Swiss functions. May you be comforted, knowing that she is at peace.
Rosie and family
The death of your Mum will leave a void in the hearts of many of us who knew her. She was one of the warmest and kindest people I would ever hope to meet.
My condolences to you and all the family at this sad time.
My heart goes out to Rosie and her family. I’ve known Mrs Cavallo since I was a child and she was always so loving and accepted us with open arms. When I was a naughty teenager and hanging around Rosie, I discovered that Mrs Cavallo had a mischievous side to her. My friends and I would crank call everyone we knew (sorry if you were one of them). This was before call display. When Mrs Cavallo found out what we were up to, she didn’t scold or reprimand us but said, “can I play too?” Mrs Cavallo knew how to live her life with purpose, compassion and on her terms. She was a talented painter ( I will cherish her painting always) and she knew how to love her family and friends. This is a lesson that we can all learn from! Never compromise your beliefs, and stand up for what you believe in, even if it means going against the entire world. Cheers to you Mrs Cavallo. Thank you for the life lessons that you taught me.
So sorry to hear about Hulda’s transition to heaven – my most sincere condolence to her family! Along with her many Swiss friends, I will miss her friendly disposition and gentle soul. May she rest in peace and smile down on our next meeting,
Lilian Marton

To Rosie and the cavallo family
I am so saddened to hear of Holdi’s passing. She was such a wonderful person. She was a great friend to my mom. She was such a giving person. She would bring my dad biberli and nutsgiful and visit my parents in the retirement home. They loved her visits and I was lucky to be there for some of them too.
After my mom passed Holdi would call me to give me support. She said she “could be my new mom”. I was so blessed to have her support. I am so sorry for your loss. She will be forever missed. Thinking of you at this painful time.
Love from sue and the Hohener family
Vince & Pam and family.
I am so saddened to learn of your Mom’s passing and wish that your loving memories of her will bring you comfort.
