Obituary
elevated iF3MM It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved aunt Vincenzina (Zizi) Stante, in her 91st year, on February 6, 2023.
elevated iF3MM Predeceased by her parents Nicola and Giuseppina Stante, and her siblings Antonio Stante and Maria Ardellini (Floyd), she will be lovingly missed by Antonio’s wife Assunta Stante, nieces and nephews Nicholas Stante (Julie), Tina Stante (Joseph), Laura Delios (Tom), Joseph Ardellini, the late Mary Jo Ardellini, great nieces and nephews Dean Stante, Neil Stante (Jen), Sean Stante, Stephanie Delios, Brian Ardellini, Andrew Ardellini, Nicholas Ardellini, Angela Hawke and Josh Hawke and great-great nieces and nephews Evan Stante, Ava Ardellini, Emmi Ardellini, Rocco Ardellini and Danika Ardellini.
elevated iF3MM Born in Chieti Italy, she lived with her family in the seaside village of Fossacesia until they immigrated to Toronto in 1950, when she was just nineteen. Settling into her new life, having learned a new language and making new friends, Zizi embarked on a new career as a seamstress using the skills she learned from her mother. When she wasn’t busy helping others, Zizi was crocheting and knitting sweaters for her family and friends that would rival any designer.
elevated iF3MM Never having married, Zizi lived with her brother Antonio and his wife Assunta and became an integral part of the family and all the generational milestones in-between. She was an incredibly kind woman, always seeing the positive in all situations with all people, easing their troubles with a bright smile and a warm laugh. Her grace and loyalty extended to all she met, inspiring her nieces and nephews, encouraging longstanding friendships and creating heartfelt memories.
elevated iF3MM While we will miss her immensely there will always be a special place in our hearts for our beloved Zizi.
elevated iF3MM The family would like to extend their sincere gratitude to the 3rd floor staff at Mackenzie Health LTC, your kindness meant so much to us all, thank you.

So very sorry to hear of Zia Vincenzina. Our deepest condolences to you and your family. You have really honoured your loving and special Zizi. She was also very special to me and I loved her like another sister. I remember when she came with her family to live with us in 1950 for a few years and then lived right next door. We all became one big family. I will always cherish the wonderful times that we shared. We will always love her and pray that she is at peace. Love and prayers to everyone.
Thank you so very much Zio. Zizi and Daddy spoke often of their time with you all. Those memories were precious to them. Thank you for sharing them and reminding us of the happy times.
Sending our love to all of you during this difficult time. We will miss her quiet presence, her tender words and her radiant smile. 🕊
Vito and I are sending our most sincere sympathy to all of the Stante family. Heaven has gained another Angel, Love and may the Good Lord Bless.❤️
