In Loving Memory of Antonietta Talevi
Our dear, sweet mother passed away on Friday, November 17th, 2023 at the age of 96. She was living in Mississauga with one of her daughters. Antonietta (Antoinette, Toni) was born on July 22nd, 1927 in Montreal in the house her father built. On that day, her brother Frank and his friend Anteo (both age 7 at the time) were called in from playing together to meet the new baby. On May 6th, 1950, Antonietta and Anteo were married. They celebrated almost 60 years together until his death in 2009. She was the youngest of five children, mother of two daughters, Leonora (Douglas d.), Evelina (Brian) and was a cuddly and doting grandmother (endearingly called Nonnina) to Maximillian (Martin), Nicholas (Julie) and Jake.
Antonietta was deeply attached to her parents, four siblings and their families. She loved her entire family with all her heart and wished we could all live close by. She was a bubbly, loving playful wife and mother; we have such happy childhood memories. Antonietta delighted in and cherished her nieces and nephews and was cherished in return by them. She treasured her friends dearly and they played a big part in her life.
Antonietta really enjoyed her many years of work as Office Coordinator in School Bookings at the Ontario Science Centre until her retirement in 1992.
Her giving nature inspired her to donate blood over 50 times even though she was afraid of needles.
We will miss our wonderful mother.
In memory of her love of animals, donations may be made to the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society.
