It is with deep sadness and broken hearts that we announce the passing of Domenica Pasqua, on Sunday, January 19, 2025, at the age of 83.
Predeceased by her husband Luigi (March 28, 2021). Left to cherish Mom’s memory are her children Tommasina Albino (Rui), Joe (Domenica) and Dino. Grandmother of Gabriella (Kennith), Filipe, Sofia (Franco), and great grandmother of Maesie.
Born in 1941, in San Mago D’Aquino, Italy, to the late Francesco and Maria Teresa Torchia, she immigrated with her family to Canada in 1965. Sister of Mario (Christina). She will be missed by many friends and relatives in Italy, Toronto and Winnipeg.
Mom was an exceptional cook with some of her famous dishes being lasagna, gnocchi and chicken soup. She was also known for her trademark breadsticks. She loved her garden, which she spent countless hours in. She also had a great passion for having beautiful flower gardens. Mom was an avid walker, never missing her daily walks, no matter what the weather had in store. She then would also not turn down a second walk after dinner if asked. Even though her health slowed her down, she continued her daily walks, though shorter, right till the very end.
Mom always loved to be in the company of family and friends, that would always put a smile on her face.
Family and friends are invited to visit O’Sullivan Funeral Home and Cremation Centre on Thursday, January 23, 2025, at 11:00 for a Funeral Service in the chapel. Entombment in Holy Sepulchre to follow.
Thank you to Dr. Patterson for her excellent care and compassion given to our Mom. Thank you to Dr. White, Dr. Booth, Niki and all the nurses who cared for our Mom on 3B at the Sault Area Hospital.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Sault Area Hospital Foundation or a charity of your choice.
Una Mamma capisce, dimentica, perona soffre, piange, eti difende, ma sopratutto ti Ama ‘Piu’
Di se stessa.
Cara Mammina:ti voglio un mondo di bene.
