Maria was well known for her great cooking of Italian food. She loved to knit, crotchet and enjoyed bowling when Sparwood had an alley. Maria was the happiest when her family was around her.

Our family would like to thank all the doctors, nurses, and paramedics in the Sparwood, Fernie, and Cranbrook Hospitals. Moreover, a very special thank you to the Elk Valley Hospital nurses and doctors for their compassion and care for Maria during her last days. We would also like to thank friends and family for all their phone calls, texts, and well wishes during this very difficult time.
