Rosaria will be missed by her many nieces, nephews and extended family. Rosaria lived a humble life of hope, strength and grace and made our lives a brighter, better place. Her family was her life, and she treasured her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and embraced every moment with them. Even as her health was declining, children brought a smile to her face. Our mother was generous and hardworking as well as an amazing cook and it gave her great joy to share her food with family, friends and neighbours. No one left
hungry or empty-handed when they left the Bruni house.
Mom was happiest when we were all together and her greatest wish was for her children to remain close. Mom we will honour your wishes. Not time, not space, not even death will separate us. Rest easy Mom, we know that you and Dad are watching over us. We will always be humbled and honoured to have had such amazing parents.
