Mary Fillipone Obituary

FILLIPONE, Mary Anne 1960 - 2014 Mary Anne went peacefully to be with our Lord on the morning of December 12. Wife of Jeff, mother of Cecilia and Gianina Fillipone, and sister of Douglas, Harry and David Bloodgood, she touched the lives and hearts of many in her workplace, at church, and in her community. She was a modest, deeply caring woman of great faith who loved people and showed a natural compassion for those in need. She was fortunate to have a group of loving friends who surrounded her and lifted her up over the past two years of her illness. These women and men continue to be a source of great strength for our family. We wish to thank Fr. John Laszczyk, Dr. Haydeh Erfanifar, Dr. Helen Anderson (BC Cancer Agency), Victoria Hospice nursing staff and physicians whose compassionate care is truly phenomenal, and the many friends who came to be with and pray for Mary Anne during the most difficult days. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:00 a.m. on December 16th at St. Andrew's Roman Catholic Cathedral. All are invited to attend. Donations to Victoria Hospice or BC Cancer Foundation would be appreciated.

Dear Jeff, Cecilia and Gianina, Recalling that we first met you all at the Conservatory of music. Peter and Cecilia took music classes together and their class time allowed me to share hopes for our children including their education.Mary Anne was a true advocate and exemplified the community spirit of St. Andrews so much so that when we later enrolled Peter and Em in the St. Andrews. We are so fortunate to have shared in that community and to have been welcomed there by you all. Mary Anne was a gentle spirit, a proud mother and a wonderful advocate for the school community. We are all very saddened to hear this sad news. We extend our sympathy, thoughts and prayers. Mary Anne will be missed. In sympathy, Robert, Peter, Emily Dodds and Donna Hooper

Our sincere condolences for such a sorrowful loss. I only knew Mary Ann from weekly Sunday mass but she was a role model in the church and clearly a wonderful wife and mother. You are in our prayers and we will pray for her soul.
