It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Concetta Perrino, beloved mother, grandmother, and friend. Concetta passed away on Monday, November 21, 2022, at the age of 87 years.
Concetta was born in Rotello, Campobasso, Italy on January 29, 1935. She married her husband of 60 years Vincenzo Francesco in 1954. They immigrated from Italy to Canada in 1966 with their two children, Leonardo and Cristina.
Concetta had a passion for cooking and would always love to be surrounded by family and friends. She was known for her incredible kindness and generosity. Concetta loved her grandchildren dearly, and she was an integral, inseparable part of their lives. Her homemade breads, pastas and pastries were legendary, and she loved to share them with family and friends. She had an amazingly keen memory, never forgetting any details.
