Domenica Minervino

It is with heartfelt sorrow that we announce the passing of Domenica Minervino "Memma" (neé Micheli), a beloved mother, sister, and friend, who departed from this world on April 23, 2025, in Sarnia, Ontario, at the age of 88. Born on January 22, 1937, in Ceccano, Frosinone, Italy Domenica's vibrant spirit and warm heart touched the lives of everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her.

Domenica was well-known for her fun, loving, and outgoing personality. She embraced life with an infectious joy that made even the simplest moments extraordinary. Domenica enjoyed watching the Blue Jays and the Maple Leafs, and never missed a game. Her talent in the kitchen was second to none, as she devoted herself to baking and cooking, creating heartfelt meals and homemade pasta that brought loved ones together in a celebration of family and friendship. In every bite, one could taste her love, care, and dedication.

She is survived by her cherished son, Filippo, and daughter-in-law, Debbie, who carry forward her legacy of love and laughter. Cherished sister to Vincenzo (Antonietta), and Angela-Maria (In Italy) remains in the hearts of all who knew her, fondly remembering the bonds of family that Domenica held dear throughout her life. She is now reunited in Heaven with her beloved husband, Americo.

Domenica will be fondly remembered and held dear in the hearts of her nieces, nephews, family and many friends in Ontario and Italy.

Domenica’s memory will live on through the countless lives she touched. Her radiant spirit will be honored with a visitation on May 10, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM at the Westminster Funeral & Reception Centre in Toronto, followed by a funeral service at 11:15 AM. The day will also include an interment at Westminster Cemetery & Mausoleum at 12:00 PM, where her loved ones can gather to say their final goodbyes and celebrate the beautiful life she lived.

Special thanks to Marshall Gowland Day Program who made her smile at every visit.

As we remember Domenica, let us carry her warmth and love in our hearts, ensuring her legacy continues to inspire us every day. Her life was a testament to love, family, and the joy of cooking, serving as a reminder to cherish each moment with those we hold dear. Rest in peace, dear Domenica.
