I’m so sorry for your loss. I know you were all so close. May the peace that surpasses all understanding guard your hearts.
Dear Ralph,
It is with deep sadness that I learned of the passing of your beloved Rosina. Reaching the remarkable age of 89 surrounded by her loved ones is a beautiful gift, yet losing such an exceptional woman leaves a tremendous void.
She was a true pillar for your family, bringing everyone together and building strong bonds across generations — from children all the way to great-grandchildren. We will always remember her warmth, her generosity, and that uniquely Italian art of keeping the family united.
During this difficult time, I want to offer you and your entire family my most sincere condolences. Our thoughts are with you.
Zio and family. Please accept my deepest condolences. Zia was an amazing woman who loved with her whole heart. Some of my best memories are of spending time with her. She always welcomed me and my kids with open arms. Her love and kindness will never be forgotten. I will keep you all in my heart and in my prayers. May you rest in peace Zia.
My deepest condolences to the Tassone Family on the passing of my beautiful Comare.
I will forever cherish the memories we built together throughout the years, especially the wonderful summers we spent at the country house. Those moments will always hold a special place in my heart.
She was a thoughtful, kind, caring, generous and hardworking woman. She touched so many lives with her warmth and selflessness and will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.
Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Our sincere condolences Zio and family. May you always be comforted by the memories you have built together as a family. Rest in Peace Zia.
With Love – Tony, Silvana and family

Ralph, Frank and I and our sons would like to extend the sadness and the heavy hearts that we feel that you’ve lost your beloved wife Rosina. Ralph Rosina was a beacon of light. He brought so much into my life and my husband and my children they adored her. We were truly blessed to have known her and the love and compassion that she has towards others. And the joy in her eyes when she would see her grandchildren was priceless. Rosina is a woman who welcome God into her heart that is why she has so much love and patience even in difficult times. Ralph I cannot even imagine how you must be feeling right at this moment losing your best friend the love of your life you both complimented each other so well. Like so many other immigrants that came between the 40s and 50s and 60s they wanted to make a better life for their children for themselves. That was not an easy task I am reminded by my parents and the sacrifices they’ve made to give us a better life. The one thing that I know that God guided you both so much love and it shows through not only Rosina and Gerald but your children your grandchildren and now great-grandparents what an honor. The day that I moved away from Ballard where we used to live not too far from each other’s homes was a very sad day for me what I took away when I left was that I had beautiful compassionate and loving Neighbors. Ralph thank you for having this beautiful person that showed so much love to all of us she would be greatly missed by so many but now it’s her time to rest and to watch over all of us as she prays for us may God bless Rosina Ralph your children your grandchildren your great-grandchildren and your extended family and friends. Rosina may your soul rest in peace in the loving arms of our heavenly father our Lord and savior Jesus Christ under holy mother Mary.😢❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️

Rosa was a kind and generous woman and a wonderful neighbour when we all lived on the farm in Queensville. May she rest in peace. Our family sends our warmest wishes for the family and their memories for a wonderful wife and mother.
Dear Tony and Karen,
We were so sorry to hear about the passing of your mom, Rose. Don has such fond memories of her from his university days — he remembers her as a very kind lady, a wonderful hostess, and a terrific cook!
It’s never easy to lose a parent, no matter how many years we have with them. We wanted to reach out and let you know that we’re thinking of you and your family and sending our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
