The family of Teresina (Sisina) announces with great sadness the passing of their beloved Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Great Grandmother, Sister, Sister-in-Law, and Aunt. She passed away peacefully at Pioneer Ridge on May 2, 2016.

Teresina was born on June 23, 1926 in Mangone, Cosenza, Italy. She married Eugenio Serravalle on July 10, 1949 and immigrated to Canada in February 1954, settling in Port Arthur.

Teresina worked mainly as a seamstress, but her passion was her family and her home. Her life was devoted to raising her family. The amazing food that everyone loved and looked forward to was legendary. She knew what everyone’s favourite dish was and made sure no one was disappointed when they came over.

She showered her Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren with love and affection, and enjoyed the many hours spent babysitting them. No sacrifice was too much for Mom to make and no problem was too small for her to fix.

Teresina will be missed and lovingly remembered by her Husband of 66 years Eugenio, loving children; Antonio Serrevalle (Nancy), Fran Morrison (Michael), Lorenzo Serravalle (Riitta), and Mary Franklin (Todd Andrusyk), Grandchildren; Marcie, Ryan, Miranda, Kimberly, Vanessa, and Chelsea, Great Grandchildren; Tristan, Karter, Austin, Megyn, Conner, Sofie, Rowan, and Kali, Brothers; Giovanni Berardi (Carmelina), Alfredo Berardi (Beverly), Mario Berardi (Maria), Sister Eva Tucci, Sister-in-Law Rosina Nicholetti in Italy, along with numerous Nieces and Nephews.

She was predeceased by her Parents Eugenio and Rosina Berardi, Brother Giacinto Berardi and Sister-in-Law Lydia, Brother-in-Law Giovanni Serravalle and Sister-in-Law Clotilda, Brother-in-Law Pierino Tucci, Nephew Dante Berardi Sr. and Niece Teresa Silvestri.
