GRANDE, Ernesto It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ernesto on Tuesday, November 3, 2015 at 89 years of age. He can now join his beloved wife of 61 years, Lucia, his daughter, Ascenza, his sister Emilia, his brothers Ascenzo, Giovanni, and Francesco, his nephews Domenico, Bernardo, and Octavio, his niece Cesidia, and his dear friend and neighbour, Terry. He retired from PPG Canada Ltd in 1991 after 25 years of exceptional service and then began working as a Crossing Guard for the Halton Catholic and Public School Boards for the next 15 years. Ernesto has worked in many other vocations throughout his rich and storied life, too many to name here, however he positively impacted so many lives throughout with his dedicated hard work and unfailing belief in fairness and responsibility for others. Ernesto is survived by his children Maria, Domenico, and Giovanna as well as his sisters Domenica and Mariantonia, the Mastrella family, and his many other nieces and nephews who he dearly loved as well as his dear friends and neighbours Heather and Kendra Lee. He will be sadly missed by his eight grandchildren, Matthew, Chloe, Kira, Jessica, Samantha, Katrina, Marisa, and Anika, as well as his great grandchild Landon. The family would also like to dearly thank the many people who have loved, cared for and supported Ernesto during these last years of his wonderful life - the exceptional and dedicated staff of Vistamere and the Waterford: his doctors, nurses, and PSWs, the many dear residents he called friends, OTMH staff, Chaplain Hillar Alkok, and all the many community volunteers and Catholic/Christian priests and faith parishioners who have visited and supported him so unconditionally. For those we have missed, thank you. Family and friends are invited to Kopriva Taylor Community Funeral Home at 64 Lakeshore Road West, Oakville, Wednesday from 7-9 p.m. and Thursday from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. A funeral mass will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, November 6, 2015 at St. Dominic Roman Catholic Church, 2415 Rebecca St, Oakville.

LAZENBY, M. Jean January 1, 1926 to August 8, 2015 Very dearly loved mother to Lesley Reid (Peter Donlevy) and Krys Reid. Nanna to Shayna, Michael, Krysten, Cecelia and Parker. Loving sister to Mick (Tona) and awesome aunt to Marcus (Karen), Jason (Kirsty) and Joanna (Richard). Jean's life was a very richly woven tapestry. After retiring in 1992 from a well-travelled career with External Affairs, she turned her many superlative talents to volunteering at Royal Botanical Gardens, hiking, exploring Canada, bridge and painting. An accomplished artist in many mediums, the masterpieces that once were modestly stored away in dark places are now proudly on display amongst our family homes. A very heartfelt thank-you to the entire staff and volunteer group at Joseph Brant Hospital who supported us in too many ways to mention - always with a smile, compassion and empathy. Fortunate family and friends will be well heart-warmed when they think of how many ways Jean enriched their lives with such positive energy - a tribute and a legacy to a mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend well loved.
