Passed away at Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital in her 81st year, with family by her bedside.  She was not without her music and her Pechinchinha until her last breath.  She was a loving Mãe (Mom) to Liz, Tony, Joe, Paula and Alexandra and Mother-in-Law to Bill, Angelica, Johnny and Carlos.  She was also an amazing Vóvó (Gramma) and Bisavó (Great Gramma).  Her love for life, family and animals, will be celebrated and she will always be remembered for her amazing food, sewing skills and always singing as she prepared meals for her family gatherings.  She loved the noise of her grandchildren playing and making jokes and picking on her.  She will always be remembered as a Vóvó Puff Puff, because of her hair.  Her strength and humor will be surely missed.

Family and friends are invited to attend a funeral visitation to celebrate the life of Vivelinda on Tuesday, December 19, 2023 at 12:00pm at Kopriva Taylor Community Funeral Home, 64 Lakeshore Road West, Oakville, ON. A funeral service will follow in the Kopriva Taylor Funeral Home Chapel, at 1:00pm with burial at St. Volodymyr Cemetery.
