MARIA LUISA (ELISA) SACCO It is with deepest sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved wife, sister, mother, and grandmother Elisa Sacco on April 28, 2006 at the Health Sciences Center at the age of 62 years. Elisa was predeceased by her parents, Pietro and Carolina Adamo; mother and father-in-law, Antonio and Rosa Sacco and brother-in-law Luigino Sacco. Elisa leaves behind to cherish her wonderful memory, her husband Battista of 39 years; her four sons, Tony (Susanna), Domenic (Lynette), Joe (Jennifer), and Gino, and beautiful granddaughters, Elisa and Rachel. She also leaves behind her sister Saveria (Domenico) and family in Ottawa, ON; brother-in-law Giuseppe (Domenica), Domenico (Maria); sisters-in-law, Carmela (Matteo), Teresina, Ida (Luigi), Antonietta (Giovanni). Along with family members in Canada, US and Italy. Mom was born in San Mango D'Aquino, Italy on August 16, 1943 and immigrated to Winnipeg in 1966 where she married Dad and started a family of her own. Mom devoted all her time and energy to ensure that her family was well taken care of. Mom was gifted with a talent for crochet and sewing. The most enjoyable part of her life was the arrival of her granddaughters. She left an imprint on the lives of those she meet and will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by her family and friends. Her dedication to her family is a testament to the kind of loving women she was.
