Felicia was born in S. Mango d Aquino, Catanzaro, Italy, on August 10, 1905, where she lived until May 20, 1964. On June 1st of the same year, together with her husband Vincenzo and son Mario, she joined the rest of her family in Winnipeg where she has lived ever since. Throughout her life, Felicia has been a shining example of inner strength and overpouring generosity. Her main preoccupation has always been the family; as a devoted wife, mother and grandmother, she has constantly placed her own needs and wants after those of her family members whose existence and accomplishments made her thankful and proud. But she didnt stop there; her deep faith and innate sense of altruism spilled over on to her many friends and, indeed, anyone she knew or of whom she knew. Her unconditional love and genuine concern for the good of others will remain as a guiding light and a source of inspiration. Prayers will be said on Wednesday, October 4 at 7:30 p.m. in the Holy Rosary Church, 510 River Avenue. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Thursday, October 5 at 10:00 a.m., also in the church, with Reverend Father Sam Argenziano Presiding at the Eucharist.

The family wishes to thank Dr. Wilfred Albi and all the nurses of the Poseidon Health Centre for their professional and compassionate care. Ci hai sorretto e guidato con tanto amore ed affetto. Il tuo ricordo non sara mai cancellato dal nostro cuore. RIPOSA IN PACE LEATHERDALE GARDINER 1501 Waverley Street 949-4860
