She was joined by the love of her life Salvatore (predeceased in 2014) in 1959, together they created a magnificent life sharing a song, a story or a dance, life was always full of treasured memories being created. Always a bounce in her step, Tina was all about time spent with family, creating wonderful meals, with a flair for creating delectable sweets and baked goods.  Tina is survived by her loving children Peter (Rosie), Rosa Cannella (Tony), and always bursting with pride whenever she spoke of her cherished grandchildren Samuel Saturno, Amanda Cannella and Jessica Barnes (Chris).    Dear sister of Nunziatina Cicero (Salvatore) of Rome, Vince Cusma (Mitch) of Whitby, and beloved sister-in-law of Concettina Gaetano (Argentina), Tindara Giorgio (Sicily), Maria And Francesco Albis (Whitby), Catena and Giuseppe Ziino (Milano), Sarina Saturno (Whitby), Antonino and Antonietta Saturno (Brampton), and Julia and Domenico Scaffidi (Whitby), predeceased by Rosario Gaetano, Salvatore Giorgio, Sarina and Pietro Albis, and Umberto Saturno.
