What a lovely lady, and what a cook. Many happy memories of time spent with Josie either on Wellington Street or on the farm. May they both Rest In Peace.

You are an angel in heaven, Aunt Leona. Like another Mom to me and my best friend/ cousin, Stephanie’s Mom, “Aunt Leona” (not sure if she was really my Aunt) always had a smile on her face and exuded warmness. Aunt Leona and my mom, together in heaven now, are certainly living life to the fullest as they always did. They modelled for me and Steph that family is the strongest of friendship- a bond that can never be replaced. I will always remember going to “the farm” and Aunt Leona being what I thought of as “a cool Italian Aunt”. Always embracing and supporting any wild idea Steph and I had but also watching us have fun with pride and love. Thank you for being such a great role model to all of us young women. Thank you for your endless love. Thank you for reminding us all that family and friendship last forever!

So beautifully written. Thank you, She. I like what your sis said that maybe they're having a good card game in Heaven. Wonder if they still have to ante up with nickels and dimes? I think it's a rare gift to have multi-generations of best friends. You're so right - we're so lucky and I'm grateful for this. xo

"Grief...is really...love. It's all the love you want to give but cannot" on this physical side, now. "All of that unspent love gathers in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat and in the hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love..." that ultimately transforms into other manifestations that maintain the connection of love's expression for the precious person we have lost on the Earth.
By Jamie Anderson in quotation marks and abridged...with personal additions made.
Always, you will be in our hearts, dearest Aunt Leona... Always, you will be remembered and missed. Thank you for being our incredibly special aunt.
Stephanie, Sasha, Gabe & Gabri -- we love you and are with you in spirit as you grieve your cherished mum, mother-in-law, and nonna...
Our love for you remains and follows you, Aunt Leona,
Virginia & Michael
