ZADRO, Santa August

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our loving mother Santa Zadro (nee Zanon) on Wednesday, December 21, 2016, at Hospice Wellington in Guelph. Santa was in her 92nd year and was the beloved wife of the late Lino Zadro (1996). She was the proud and loving mother of Ron, Paola and Donato Ventresca, Walter and Daniela (nee Da Maren), Loris and Franco Manni and Lilina and Franco Campagnolo. 

Santa loved being surrounded by her grandchildren Christine and Stephanie Ventresca, Michael (Heather) and Matthew Zadro, Marina, Natalie and Franco (Jackie) Manni, Joseph (Frances) and Stefano Campagnolo. Her greatest joy was being Bisnonna to Luca and Livia Zadro, Cameron Zadro, GianLuca and Andres Campagnolo and our newest little treasure Emma Manni who just arrived Dec 9th. Santa is survived by sisters-in-law Anita Zanon and Nancy Zadro, Natalina, Santina, Elda and Clemente Zadro. Santa was predeceased her siblings Odorino, Maria, Luigia, Duilio, and twins Giuseppe and Giovanni. Santa is also predeceased by Enrico, Guerrino, Lionello, Ida, Ermenegildo, Fermino, Augusto and Rino Zadro. Santa will be missed by many nieces, nephews in Canada and Italy.
