Rina Zamperin

In lieu of flowers the family would appreciate a donation to the Canadian Cancer Society or Dorothy Ley Hospice.

Sadly, Rina Bruna Zamperin, 78, peacefully passed away on Monday, September 3rd at Dorothy Ley Hospice in Etobicoke (Toronto), Ontario. She was born on October 1st, 1939 in Salvatronda (Treviso, Veneto) Italy, and emigrated to Canada in 1960, where she married her loving husband Angelo Benito (deceased). They raised their two sons (Bruno and Paul) in Weston (Toronto) in a loving house filled with Rina's home-cooked meals using the freshest ingredients from their bountiful backyard garden.

Rina loved to cook and make wonderful meals for family and friends. Rina was also a powerful bowler and often won awards for best score. She will be remembered as a wonderful woman who loved her family and friends.

Rina is survived by her sons Bruno (MaryJo) and Paul (Peter) and her two grandchildren Kira and Mitchel. She will be sadly missed by her remaining family in Canada, in Italy, as well as long time friends.
