With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Angelina (Lena).
Predeceased by her beloved husband Luciano and brother Remo. Survived by loving children David, Dean (Anna), grandchildren Jennifer, Alexandra, Christopher, and Matthew. Greatly missed by her dear sister-in-law Jane Torresan, nephews, niece, and cousins.
Lena’s devoted to her family and professional years as a dedicated bookkeeper left an indelible mark of love and warmth on those around her. Her joy in socializing, choir singing, and baking, coupled with unwavering devoted Catholic faith, defined her vibrant personality. Sustained by her faith Lena confronted cancer with unyielding strength for almost half of her life.
We extend heartfelt gratitude to the medical teams at Burnaby General Hospital and St. Michael’s Hospice for their exceptional care.
Prayers will be offered at St. Helen's Parish 3860 Triumph Street, Burnaby, on December 18, 2023, at 7:00 PM, and Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on December 19, 2023, at 10:00 AM. Entombment to follow at Gardens of Gethsemani, 15694 32 Ave, Surrey.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Lena’s memory to the BC Cancer Agency are appreciated.
