elevated mbJAV It is with profound sadness and much love that we mourn the passing of our beloved mother Vincenza Laura Mangialardi (Panzeca) who passed away peacefully on Thursday August 27, 2026 at the age of 93.
elevated mbJAV Laura was born on January 28, 1933, in Termini Imerese, Sicily to parents Giovanni and Vincenza Panzeca. She was a sister to Sebastiano (Antonina), Antonino and Salvatore (Giuseppina). She left Sicily for Toronto and married Giacinto Mangialardi on April 30, 1960, who predeceased her in 2005. Together they raised two children Nicola Vito and Elisabetta. Laura was the proud grandmother of Samantha and Sierra
elevated mbJAV In 1973 Laura became a real estate agent where she found great success, winning many trophies, no doubt owing to her charming personality and endless energy.
elevated mbJAV Laura’s greatest legacy is the love she shared with those around her. She will be remembered for her generous heart, joyful spirit and unwavering love she gave to family.
elevated mbJAV We are grateful for the lessons she taught us: her commitment to family, her fierce work ethic, her strength and resilience, and her enjoyment of life. She was always smiling. She talked to everybody and told amazing stories. She was always dancing and singing. We will take these lessons with us and honour her by living happy lives.
elevated mbJAV We wish to thank family and friends for their love and support through not only this difficult time, but during the many years that our mother has been ill. You have helped us more than you know.
elevated mbJAV Most importantly we wish to thank God for our mother’s wonderful life and for her peaceful passing. We know she is in Heaven with our father and all her brothers and all our dogs. We know she is resting peacefully in the arms of Jesus.
