It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Maria Silvia Saccomanno (nee: Veltri) on December 22, 2025. Born on July 4, 1931 in Grimaldi, Cosenza, Italy at the age of 94.
She has reunited with the love of her life Antonio Pasquale, her parents Napoleone and Giuditta Veltri, her mother in-law Maria Giuseppa and father in-law Pietro Saccomanno.
She is also reunited with her brothers Peter (Anna), Fortunato (Tarsilla), sisters Evelina (Antonio), Eugenia (Emilio), Emma (Emilio). Her sister in-law Iolanda (Agostino), brother in-law Emilio (Venia), her nieces Maria Teresa (Barry), Lynn, and Vincenza.
She will be greatly missed by her children Pietro, Maria Giuseppa (Joe), her loving grandchildren Joseph (Andrea), Daniel, Sarah (Sean), Phillip (Julia), and Matthew, and all her nieces and nephews.
Maria will always be remembered for her kindness and zest for life. She always lit up a room when she walked into one. She had a passion and a love of life, always telling stories, cooking for her family and always wanting her friends and family to be around her.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to the Alzheimer’s Society in Maria Silvia Saccomanno’s name.

My heart aches for you. Your mom was such a beautiful and loving presence, and her home was always filled with warmth, laughter, and a sense of belonging. I will forever treasure the special times we shared there — the conversations around the table, the quiet moments, the comfort of being together under her roof. Those memories are so deeply woven into who we are, and they will always live on in our hearts. Please know that I am here for you in every way, always — to remember, to cry, to sit in silence, or simply to hold space for you. You are deeply loved, and you never have to face this alone. Bruno & Brenette

They say it takes a village to raise a child. In a way that was true for a group of us that grew up on Old Weston Rd., in Toronto, were everyone’s parents were thought of as family.
