URSULA BORELLI Obituary

Ursula Borelli 1941-2012 Our beloved Mother Ursula, was "imported" from Germany by our dearly departed dad Gene in 1961. It was love at first sight and endured through thick and thin the rest of their lives. This stunning blonde who gave life to Sandy (Andrew), Paul (Terri), Bob (Rhonda) and Vic (Marty); grandmother to Gianna, Joey, Mikey, Nikki, Danny, Amber, Kat, Sandy & Deanna, Great Grandmother to A.J., was and always will be a shining example of a caring Mom, loyal friend and devoted wife. She also had countless achievements and experiences. While tragically taken from us so early we find solace in our good fortune to be blessed by so many fond memories, a fabulous family, and true friends. Albeit a short life, it was a full life evidenced by the many people she touched. We are eternally grateful to her and what she taught us in leading by example. Family & friends are invited to services this Friday at Central Peninsula Church, 1005 Shell Blvd., Foster City 94404 at noon. In lieu of flowers please make a donation in her name to a charity that is special to you.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

The proof of what an exceptional woman she was is left behind in the shape of the wonderful children she has, the wonderful spouses they married and in turn the amazing grandchildren and great-grandchild. She made the world a better place by allowing us the opportunity to be involved in this loving family. Thank you Ursula Borelli you will be sorely missed.

I have so many fond memories of Ursula as a devoted mother, daughter, dedicated wife, and friend. Saddened to hear that her family has to deal with such a sudden and tragic loss. I'll never forget what a wonderful person she was to all of us and the good things we were able to experience together like family. God bless both
Gene & Ursula now being reunited in eternity. Until meet again. Love alway...
