In loving memory of Virginia “Bice” (Natale) Perri, 91 years. Peacefully, Sunday, September 12th, 2021 at Extendicare York. Beloved wife for 67 years of Cosimo Perri, predeceased 2017. Loving mother of Mary (husband Ron Miller), Ivana (husband Mario Simonato), Pina (husband Gerry Moore), and Frank (wife Pam Perri). Cherished Nanna to Natalie (Ron), Andrea (Nick), Claudia (Owen), Paolo (Krystal), Giulia (Justin), Jessica, Rebecca, Spencer, Logan, and great-grandchildren Anderson, Edie, and Marina. She will be sadly missed by her sisters-in-law Connie and Irma and many nieces and nephews.
Virginia was born in Laurignano, Cosenza, Italy, where she met and married Cosimo Perri in 1950. Cosimo immigrated to Canada in 1952, followed by Virginia and their daughter Mary in 1953. Virginia, along with her husband, raised their four children in Gatchell while enjoying many activities such as bowling, bocce, dancing and enjoying their life. But what she loved most was preparing delicious meals and being in the company of her children, grandchildren and many friends. She was happiest when she had the entire family gathered around the dinner table. Once her children left the nest, she and Cosimo began to travel to various places and spent many winters in Acapulco with their friends. We will all miss her devotion to her family and her zest for life.
