It is with a very heavy heart that I write this condolence message.

Orazio, Gina & Angela my deepest and sincere condolences to you, your loved ones and family. 

I will always cherish so many fond memories of your mom. From my early childhood playing at the farm on Trulls road, to the family reunions and family gatherings at your mom’s house. As a child and an adult I loved visiting with your mom. 

Your mom was a beacon of love, warmth and wisdom.  She was always smiling, always laughing and full of life. 

Zia, rest peacefully, know that your legacy of life and love will continue to live in all those you loved.

With profound sadness, I bid farewell to you, but know that the memories we shared will stay with me forever in my heart.









Zia Emilia & my mom, Carmela Naccaratto Bruni.

To Orazio and Family,

I'm very sorry for the enormous loss of your Mother.  I know she meant a great deal to you all.
Orazio, my deepest condolences.  I know what you're going through as I too lost my mother only last year.   Your rich memories will pull you through.  In fact you'll find she's still very much with you.

May your Mother rest peacefully, my prayers are with her.

Beautiful photos (memories) Our hearts are with you & family as you celebrate your mother's life.

Orazio, Gina, Angela and families.

 I will cherish the chats that I had with your mom. Her sense of humor and laughter while she told stories was infectious. Her spirit shines brightly among the angels. 😇

Rest in peace Zia. You are dearly missed.

Zia Emilia, my name-sake. My earliest memories are of all the beautiful dresses you had seen for me. My favourite being the mauve dress with pretty white lace flowers. Growing up, your company was valued as was your wisdom you shared. Our drives to Boston provided many opportunities to share  your stories of growing up in Italy.  You were loved by many & were a good sister to your brothers. Always watching out for both of them.  You loved my mom like a sister.   Your loss will be felt but you will be forever in our hearts & memories. Give my mom & dad a big hug from me. Rest In Peace Zia. 

To Orazio, Sebastian and the Mazzotta family,
My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you.
I remember your mom in the 80's when she carried on her seamstress business across the street from me. She was a very special lady. Every time I saw her she would stop to talk.
She will be sadly missed.
God be with her.

Dear Orazio, Gina and Angela,
Please accept our sincere condolences. We remember your mamma as a kind and generous lady. She was such a talented seamstress too. Emilia  was a great friend to my mother when she was still a grieving widow and then for many years thereafter. I will always appreciate the kindness she showed to my mother and the easy friendship extended to her. 
She will be missed and the time spent together fondly remembered. 
We hope the many loving memories of your dear mother will ease your broken hearts. 
Linda and Bill Donovan and Angela Rotondo

You will always be next to me, no matter how far away we are. I will always feel your memory close to you and I will never forget how great was the affection that united us. A special aunt…for me you will always live in my heart. I never imagined having to say goodbye to you.
Mario , Cinzia , Daniela, Stefania and Valentina 


Nonna, I love and miss you so much. From the amazing meals to the all the laughs, I am so grateful for every moment. From when I was young, traditions like making sauce in the fall to all those times you would make chilli on Friday nights were things I would get excited for as I knew it would be time we’d get to spend together. More recently, when I was at school, I was grateful to have your soup in my freezer that you worked so hard on to help me feel better when I was sick or in need of some comforting food. Thank you for everything Nonna, I love you. Rest in peace. ❤️

Dear Family, 
We are very grateful for the many fond memories of gathering with your Mom and our dear friend Maria.  Your mom always welcomed us into her home often sending us on our way with a homemade treat.  We haven't forgotten her amazing tomato sauce and the many other dishes she liked to make.  She was a special mom to all of you, and I will always admire her love and care for all her grandchildren.  She will be sadly missed.  Thinking of everyone.
Kathy, Cori and Justin
