Labriola LuciaLABRIOLA, Lucia Labriola   -  December 13, 1934 – May 26, 2022 

With great sadness, Lucia Labriola passed away peacefully at Lakeridge Health Oshawa on Thursday May 26th, 2022, at 87 years of age.

Lucia, better known as “Lucy” was born Dec 13, 1934, in Veroli, Italy.

She immigrated to Canada in 1953 as a young woman in her early 20’s with her parents, Santino and Gina and younger siblings Pasquale and Giulio.

It was here that she met her beloved partner for life, Mike Labriola, and was married to him for 68 years.

She was the proud mother of Adeline (Pelosi) and was even more proud to be called “Nonna Cia” by her two granddaughters, Marilu (Marshall) and Laura (Franco).

She will also be missed by her great grandchildren Tommy, Charlie, and Henry (Marshall) and Isabella and Jamie (Franco) who knew her by no other name than “Nonna Cia”. Sadly, missed by her brothers Giulio/Tony (Mary), Pasquale/Pat (Marisa)and her sister Filomena (Fiorino deceased) of Veroli, Italy and loved by nieces, nephews, and friends.

Lucy was a woman who was immensely proud to live in Canada and from the day she landed here, she worked extremely hard to help provide for her daughter.

Lucy enjoyed hours upon hours working in her garden growing her tomatoes and bountiful bright green basil.

She could be found in her kitchen, with her back turned, at the stove, stirring a huge pot of sauce, always ready and waiting for all the visitors, who always left with full tummies of wine and pasta and the latest new stories.

Lucy will now be able to reunited with Mike where they can eat their cereal with coffee, and prosciutto and cheese and he will be waiting for her at the pearly gates in a shiny red Ferarri!
