Louise De Monte Obituary

Louise Teresa De Monte passed away peacefully at the age of 85, surrounded by family on Wednesday, February 1st, 2023, reuniting her with the love of her life, Gerry, who predeceased her in 1994.

Louise was born on September 5, 1937 in Borgo Faiti, Latina, Italy and immigrated to Canada at the young age of 12. Mom had a beautiful smile and infectious laugh which will be dearly missed by her son John (Kristine) De Monte and family Amanda De Monte (fiancé Connor Gehring), Rachelle (Derek) Simpson, Nicolas (Rebecca) De Monte and Sydney De Monte. Daughter Lidia (Glen) Kowalski and family Ryan Kowalski (Alexandra Friedrichs), Brianna Kowalski and Larissa Kowalski (Vincenzo Soave). Also missing their bisnonna are her adoring 5 great-grandchildren, Nevaeh, Dominic, Theodore, Laila and Lennox. She leaves behind her brother Ben (Donna) De Marni, sisters Teresa Klarich, Joanne Uliana, Rosanne (Aldo) Guglielmini, sister-in-law Luisa De Marni and many numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.

She was predeceased by her son "Baby Robbi" Robert De Monte, parents Batista and Maria De Marni, sister Natalina Bertoncini, brothers Severino and Mario De Marni. Brothers-in-law Joe Klarich, Bruno Uliana, Armando Bertoncini and sister-in-law Jean De Marni.

As one of the founding members of the Can-ital Ladies, she loved spending numerous hours cooking Italian meals for many weddings and other functions at the Colombo Lodge.

Mom's greatest love was spending time with all her family which filled her heart with pride and joy. She had an unbelievable green thumb spending hours tending to her vegetable and flower garden.

The Funeral Mass will be held at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church on Saturday, February 11, 2023 at 12pm. Following the service the family would like to invite family and friends to the Parish Center for refreshments. Interment to follow for immediate and extended family.

The family would like to thank Dr. Howie and all the caregivers at Pine Grove Care Center for all their support, kindness and care mom received during her time there.

In lieu of flowers, in honour of our mom, we ask you light a candle in her memory.

My deepest condolences to the family of Louise. I remember her from when I was younger, she would come over to my Grandparent's (Clarence & Bernie) house across the street from her on Sherbrooke for coffee. They were friends for many years. Thinking of you all at this time.

John and Lidia, so sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. Grew up with her across the lane and shared many cups of coffee with her at my mother´s house. Will miss her. May she R.I.P. Hugs to all of you.

Sad to read this news about Louise. I was privileged to spend time with Louise, Luigi, Emilio and Maria, enjoying their Italian heritage. Those visits were always a fun time. She will be missed.
