Velia Speranza Obituary
We are sad to announce that on February 4, 2025, Velia Speranza (Toronto, Ontario) passed away. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
As we bid Velia farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Velia is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her husband Alberto Speranza; her children, Perry Speranza and Fabrizia O'Neill (Michael Carnegie); and her grandchildren, Justin O'Neill (Samantha), Evyn O'Neill (Candice) and Krystyn O'Neill (Matt Kovalchuk).
