Riposa in Pace
To Mum, ‘I love you’ was her opening line. Love exuded from her heart; a blessing direct from the Almighty himself. She was meek and humble, but excelled in the beauty and simplicity of life. Nothing was too difficult for her and she found the patience to complete tasks with perfection. Family was her pride and joy. There was a holistic harmony with her husband Mario, and her two daughters Fausta and Adriana were her greatest heavenly gifts, together with their families. Elena was the epitome of love and kindness.
Mum, we love you, miss you and pray you reunite with your loved ones that went before you.
Love always Rino and Fausta (dec).
To my darling Mum, Elena
There are no words to express my love for you.You are now reunited with the love of your life, my amazing dad Mario, and my beautiful sister Fausta.
Though the pain of losing you is unbearable, I find comfort knowing you are free from pain and at peace.Your love and humility have guided me, your lessons were simple: be kind, be humble, and love unconditionally. In God’s loving arms you rest, but in Guido’s and my heart you live on forever. Your faith, love, and gentle spirit will continue to bless and comfort us each day. Go gently, my darling, and watch over us with Dad and Fausta by your side.We love you always, Adriana and Guido.
To our beautiful Nonna,
Thank you for all the love that you showed us every day of your life. Your kindness; your heart. Nothing was ever too great a task when it came to your grandchildren and great grandchildren. You loved each and every one of us and we felt your love in all you did. We will always miss you. Until we meet again. Rest peacefully with your daughter and husband in God‘s Care. All our love Amalia & Rob, Sandra & Adam, Jason & Stefanie, Pelle & Angelina, Marie & Stefan and all your great grandchildren.
