We want everyone to know that no matter how deep our sorrow, that we are glad her suffering is now over and she is reunited with her beloved husband. We will remember her warmth, her love of her family and grandchildren, her gentle strength and her strong gentleness. She has always been the epitome of a real lady and that is how she will be remembered. Luisa was a kind, generous and compassionate woman. She took pleasure in cooking for family and friends and traveling to Italy. Her greatest joy was spending time with family, friends and especially her grandchildren. A very heartfelt thanks to the staff, nurses and caregivers at the Brant Centre for the love, care and support that has been given to Luisa and her family in the last two years.
