MARIANO, Gliceria

Peacefully, surrounded by her loving family at home on Wednesday, April 27, 2022 in her 86th year. Loving daughter to the late Sosimo and Maria Simpao, and sister to Milagros, Norberto, and Dolores. Beloved wife of the late Bernardino Mariano. Cherished mother to Noel (Susan) and Daisy, predeceased by Edgardo (Maria), Digna (Angelito), and Thelma (Celso) and special mother to Ronald (Dhorie)

Proud grandmother to Quezar (Bernice), Carmelito (Jennifer), Mary Bernadette (Carey), Kimberly (Rob), Kirby, Kevin, Christel (Ogie), Cheyson (Rodelyn), Gilbert (Isabel), Erico, Millen and Mark. Treasured great grandmother to Noah, Hannah, Aylah, Malia, Karmyne, Max, Iya, Sean and Aidan. Adoring Tita to many nieces and nephews.

She was a strong yet graceful woman who was devoted to her faith and her compassion, love and incredible generosity will be remembered by so many,

Gliceria immigrated to Canada in 1983 with her children Daisy and Noel to join her daughter Thelma and her family in starting a new life in Canada. She was a hard worker who doted on and supported her family. She was always willing to share her wisdom and give advice to those who needed it. She was nurturing and motherly to all. Her friendly smile will not be forgotten by those who knew her and her family and friends were truly blessed to have had her in their lives.

A special thank you and appreciation to Dr. David Hood for his kindness, care, and compassion, as well as the Bayshore Staff.
