elevated dOher Velia will be fondly remembered for her strong will and determination, her sharp wit, and her caring heart. Anyone lucky enough to taste Velia’s cooking would agree that she was the best, and she always made sure that you didn’t leave her home hungry or empty-handed. Velia would speak fondly of her youth in Italy, sharing stories with humour and fondness; her pride and devotion toward her family never wavered and she welcomed children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of her own. Her appreciation for the beauty of nature and her ability to create beautiful things manifested in her garden, her food, and in crafts and clothing; all handmade with love. We will hear her voice and her beautiful laugh in the wind on the days when we miss her the most.

If you would like to send a floral arrangement to honour Velia please send them to the funeral home or if desired, donations can be made to a charity of your choice.
