During this unprecedented situation with COVID-19, it is with very heavy hearts that we have made the difficult decision to hold a private funeral with our immediate family. We have chosen to do this in order to minimize the threat of spreading the coronavirus. Ultimately, we recognize that the health and safety of our family and friends comes first.
A celebration of life and memorial mass will be held at a later date for extended family and friends.
We appreciate your love and support at this time, and we welcome your messages of condolence on the website of Bernardo Funeral Homes – Dufferin Location.
In honour of Rosina’s memory, if you wish, donations can be made to Villa Charities Foundation or the charity of your choice.
In the loving good-natured spirit of one of her sons, we’re left with a final thought. While our hearts are burdened from the loss, our minds are eased with the knowledge that we no longer have to unravel the countless twist-ties, rubber bands and safety-pins mom would securely attach to the multitude of plastic bags to protect each of her belongings. God bless you mom! We love you dearly.
