De AMICIS, Agnese “Susi” (nee Garofalo) - Passed away peacefully with her daughter at her side, just days shy of her 91st birthday, on April 17th at Orchard Villa Long Term Care Home.
Born in L’Aquila, Italy, she arrived in Toronto with husband Giovanni (predeceased 1995) in 1960, and lived in the same house for over 53 years.
She loved to garden and to cook, but above all she loved her family.
Always a hard worker, she found her greatest joy in caring for her granddaughters.
She leaves behind her only child Clara (George), grand-daughters Jessica (Mark) and Angela (Kyle), and great-grandson Rowan.
Missed and forever loved by family in Canada, Italy, the United States and Australia.
A special thank you to the compassionate staff at Orchard Villa, for all their kindness over the last 6 years, but especially for their efforts over the past month.
In these difficult times, a private family interment will take place.
As an expression of sympathy, donations can be made to the Ajax Pickering Hospital Foundation, Covid-19 Emerging Needs Fund. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests a donation to Canadian Cancer society.
