It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, Olga, in her eighty-eighth year on Tuesday, 17th of October, 2017 in Victoria, B.C.

She was predeceased by her husband Nereo in 2013. She is survived by her daughters Loretta (Ray), Rosella (Neil), beloved and deeply cherished grandson Harley (Kelsey). In Italy, she is survived by her brother Attilio (Luigina) and sister Maria and many nieces and nephews in her extended family.

She was born in 1929, in a very small village near Valdagno, Northern Italy. She left Italy to join her fiancée, Nereo in Victoria in 1957 where they married and started a family. It was Olga’s bold and tenacious nature that led her to start businesses, learned to speak English, was a full-time mother, and created a nurturing family environment. She was gifted with a sly sense of humour and dry wit that will be deeply missed by family and friends.

A Funeral Service will be held at 12:30 pm on Monday, October 30, 2017 in the Sequoia Centre at McCall Gardens, 4665 Falaise Drive, Victoria, BC with a reception to follow.  Entombment to be held at Royal Oak Burial Park.
