It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our cherished and beloved mother, Iride Maria on November 21, 2018 in her 93rd year. Iride went to join her dearest husband Konstanin in heaven where she will also be reunited with her parents Maria and Giovanni Serafini, sister Pia (Antonio) Trombetta, brother Domenic Petro Serafini and sister Maria Iafolla.
Iride leaves behind her loving daughter Catherine (Roman) Hewko and son Joseph (Caroline) Piskorowski as well as her sister-in-law Vincenza Serafini. Iride loved her grandchildren John (Kristina), Nicholas (Danielle), Daniel (Rachelle), Mitchell, Isabella and her great grandchildren Evan and Owen. She will also be missed by her nieces and nephews and their children, Liberatore (Sandy), Luca, Chiara Trombetta, Anna (William), Aedan, Anthony MacNeil, Maria Grazia (Alessandro) and Domenico and Maria Joseph.
Iride was a loving and caring mother who dedicated her life to her family. Iride was a truly religious woman who kept the love of God close to her heart. May God take care of our beloved mother and may she rest in heaven.
