SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO THE WHOLE VITELLA FAMILY. ANNA MARIA WAS OUR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR FOR OVER 30 YEARS AND BECAUSE OF HER DELICIOUS FOOD ALONE, I'M AT LEAST 15 POUNDS HEAVIER. WE SHARED A LOT OF MEALS TOGETHER AND MANY FUN TIMES. SHE WAS THE “MATRIARCH” OF THE CASALVERANO POPULATION IN THE WINDSOR/ESSEX AREA AND SHE ALWAYS IMPRESSED PEOPLE, NOT ONLY WITH HER COOKING, BUT THERE WAS SINGING, DANCING, PARTYING WITH FRIENDS, MAKING WINE… BUT BEST OF ALL, WAS THE WAY SHE MANAGED TO RAISE A PRETTY LARGE FAMILY AND SOME OF THE MANY DISCENDANTS, AND THE WAY SHE WAS ABLE TO KEEP SUCH FAMILY UNITED AND AS CLOSE TO EACH OTHER, AS NO OTHER WE KNOW. SHE IS RESTING IN PEACE NOW AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO LOOK UP TO HER AS OUR GUIDE, EVEN IF SHE IS NOT WITH US, ANYMORE, BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT SOMEHOW SHE IS. WITH ALL OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS, ERMINIO AND RITA.
