CARDILLO, Lucia “Lucy”

We are completely heartbroken on the loss of our beautiful Mum, Lucia.

Mum was so deeply loved by all of us and her presence brought so much love, strength and warmth into our lives.
Mum was an incredibly strong, resilient woman who faced life with courage and determination.

I will miss the wonderful aroma of coffee and biscuits when we walked through your door. I will miss your amazing stories from a lifetime ago and our daily chats on the phone. We loved our little shopping adventures out and visiting all of your wonderful friends.

Mums love, strength and kindness will stay with us forever.
Although our hearts are broken, we will carry her with us everyday and be forever grateful that we are lucky enough to call her our Mum.

My world has changed forever. There are no words. I will keep you tucked in my heart and try and continue to make you proud.

Forever in our hearts.
Angela and Darren 💔🌹

Nonna, our world completely changed when you left us. You taught us so much about life, family and hard work. You were the strongest woman I’ve ever known. So many of my childhood memories are filled with you, and we were so incredibly lucky to have you for as long as we did. I will miss you every second of every day.
My biggest inspiration, and the woman I will always aspire to be.
We love you endlessly Nonna.

She was the best Big Nonna I have had and I loved coming over to her house and giving her big kisses and hugs. I loved getting the eggs with her and feeding the chickens and cat, I can’t forget about making pizza pasta and Italian doughnuts and sausage day was so much fun. She loved me so much but I loved her more. I loved when she came to my house but when I went to big Nonna’s house we all did so much fun things. Love Joel xoxoxo

I love my Big Nonna. I will miss her forever. Making biscuits and Italian doughnuts together was so much fun. We have lots of happy memories together. Love Ella xx

To our beautiful Mum and Nonna,

Your love was the heart of our family, and the memories we shared with you will be treasured forever. We will miss you more than words can ever say.

Forever loved, forever missed, and forever in our hearts.

My Nonna, 🤍

I am completely heartbroken that you are no longer in our presence, but I know you will be observing and guiding us all from above. You will forever and always be present in my heart, alongside Nonno.

I thank you for, and will cherish all of the beautiful memories that I have with you, sharing café and biscotti, you teaching me how to cook your recipes, yet they somehow never tasted the same when I attempted them myself.

You were such a strong and resilient woman, one who I will admire for the rest of my life.

I love you Nonna and I miss you deeply already.

To the cardillo family sorry to hear about your mum l love and prayers from antonittea learardi and family xxx

To my beautiful Nonna,

I will always cherish the simple moments we shared — a coffee together, learning your recipes, listening to your stories and walking through your veggie garden with you.

You were such a special part of my life and I am so grateful for every moment, every lesson and every memory. I will carry these little pieces of you with me always.

How lucky I am to have had a Nonna so special that missing you hurts this much.

Forever my beautiful Nonna, forever in my heart, forever loved.

To our beautiful, strong and inspiring Nonna,

Nothing could have prepared us for life without you. Here we are expecting you to walk through the back door and put the coffee on. You were the best Nonna that anyone could ever ask for, and we are so lucky that we got to call you ours. We would give anything to see your gorgeous smile one more time, to spend one more lunch at your house, to have one more coffee with you and to give you one more hug. The impact you had on our family will forever be remembered.
I am deeply going to miss our after work juices.
Lots and lots of love, forever,
Josh and Olivia

Nonna, I was blessed to be welcomed to many family gatherings growing up with your beautiful grand daughter. You were such a strong & inspiring woman – I hope to someday build a beautiful, strong family bond like the one you fostered with your own.
I will cherish the memories created sharing food around your table, animal fat pizza, my first espresso & learning all about gardens and chickens with you and Nonno.
You will be missed immensely.
Sending so much love to your family at this time

Mum, words can’t describe how much I miss you already, but knowing that you enjoyed and lived your life to the fullest right to the end comforts me a little. You loved having your family and friends around no matter what time of day or night it was as your door was always open to all. I’m so going to miss our aldi trips and other adventures that somehow randomly happened to us, Our talks, coffees and way too much food. You always put a smile on my face as there was always fun times with my cheeky Lucy. Your body might have gotten old but your soul was still young.
Time to be back in the arms of the man you admiraly cared for years, dad the man you love and miss.
RIP my best friend, mum

Our beautiful Nonna,

Thank you for all the amazing memories we shared together. Thank you for teaching us the true meaning of love, kindness and generosity through the way you showed it to everyone around you.

There was never a Saturday that we didn’t come for lunch. You would always find a way to send me off to get you some bread because you had forgotten to buy it while shopping, or ask Harmonee to make you a salad. These little moments may have seemed so ordinary at the time, but they are the memories we will hold onto forever.

You were the anchor of our family, always making sure there was laughter filling the room and always making everyone feel loved and welcome. You were the person we knew would always have her door open, no matter what.

We will miss your beautiful smile, your warmth, your stories and all those little things that made you, you. Most of all, we will miss simply having you there.

Thank you for being our Nonna, for loving us unconditionally and for giving us a lifetime of beautiful memories, and you will always be in our hearts.

We love you, Nonna. Forever and always.
Amore per sempre, Jordan & Harmonee💙

My deepest condolences to all the Cardillo families. 💝Lucia (Mum) I just wanted to let you know that you were such a beautiful strong yet gentle lady, with a heart of gold.I feel so privileged to have been part of your life. You were such a devoted mum and Nonna to my Jordan and Harmonee. I loved and respected you with all my heart. But now it’s time to say goodbye. Ciao Mum. Riposa In Pace 💝✨

Beautiful Nonna, you were such a beautiful soul! You always welcomed me with open arms in your home and your heart and I will never forget the love you showed me growing up with Lis! I will miss you ❤️

You will be very missed Lucia, beautiful and loving mother, nonna and friend. Love from Joe, Grace and Annita Tumino. You will be very missed. Our condolences to the family.

Mario and Tanya. Sorry for your loss. X Lisa Tyas

To Angela and the extended family, we express our deepest sorrow and condolences to you all for the loss of your loved one, our thoughts are with you all during this difficult time.

From Maria & Alvano Marino and Margherita Montano.

For 26 years, I was lucky enough to call you my mother-in-law.
Although life changed, the love and respect I had for you never did.
You taught me so much, probably without ever realising it. You taught me to value each day, not to worry too much about the little things I couldn’t control, and that time with the people we love is worth far more than anything money can buy.
You were also the most wonderful Nonna to my children.
You gave them your love, your time and so many memories. You taught my daughter your recipes, and I love knowing that a little piece of you will live on every time she makes them.
And of course, I will always smile when I think about the way you said the word “dough.” Such a little thing, but so completely you.
You had a cheeky side too, and I hope that when we remember you, we don’t just cry. I hope we laugh, tell the funny stories and remember all those little things that made you who you were.
I feel incredibly lucky that I had you in my life for so many years, and even luckier that my children got to call you Nonna.
Thank you for loving us, for the memories, and for the lessons you gave me.
Most of all, thank you for teaching me that the greatest gift we can give the people we love is our time.
I will always be grateful for the time I had with you.
Love you always
Nikki

Treasured memories of our much-loved Zia Lucia. ❤️
I will deeply miss our long chats and will be forever grateful for the opportunity to share so many of our wonderful Massaro family stories. These special memories will be cherished in my heart forever.
Zia Lucia leaves a beautiful legacy of friendship, love and respect that will continue to guide each of us on our life’s journey.
Vola con gli angeli, Zia Lucia. Ti vogliamo tanto bene. ❤️🌹❤️
Maria & Mark

To the Cardillo Family, our sincere condolences to you all. Lucia was a lovely gentle women. Our thoughts are with you at this sad time. R.I.P – from the Di Ciero Family

Zia Lucia was wonderful, strong, loving, kind and welcoming. Every visit to her home was so good, lots of talk and plenty of family always calling in.

She was the last of the Massaro aunts and uncles. She was part of my life from the beginning and we enjoyed sharing memories going back to my childhood in Corleto. She was also an endless source of family knowledge.

Our love and condolences to the family. We have all lost a treasure and we will miss her.
Love, Vin and Rosemary

Ho avuto la fortuna di conoscere zia Lucia quando è venuta in Italia ed io ero ancora una bambina e poi l’ho rivista nel 2009 circondata dai nipoti e dai figli nella sua bella casa. In entrambe le circostanze ho potuto apprezzare la sua simpatia, la sua fermezza, la sua disponibilità, il suo grande cuore… La ricorderò per sempre con affetto…Riposa in pace…Maria Assunta (da Corleto P. – Italia)

We were deeply saddened to hear of Lucy’s passing.

Lucy was a familiar and much-loved presence around Heritage Manor during the time we cared for her husband, Frank. Her love, dedication, and devotion to Frank were always evident and reflected the kind and caring person she was. Lucy’s warmth and gentle nature will be fondly remembered by many.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to her family and loved ones during this difficult time. Our thoughts are with you all.

Katie Jeremiah & the Heritage Manor Lifestyle Team ❤️

My condolences and deepest sympathies to the Cardillo family, and particularly to Angela, Vince, Tony and Mario. I will remember Aunty Lucy for her warmth, her hospitality, and for her kind of no-nonsense attitude that is hard to put into words.

Rest in peace, Aunty Lucy.

Thinking of you Cathy and all of your family at this sad time. Sending you all my love. Sharon

Your unwavering strength ,fairness and warmth you showed to all the walked into life shows how special a person you were. Mum, you leave a lasting legacy of love and comfort that will stay with us for ever. Forever grateful for having you in my life. Tanya Cardillo xx

To my dear Lucia from the moment I walked thru your door 31 years ago you welcomed me into your family, and I will always remembered my first tea at your house which was one of your homemade pasta dishes which I thought was my main meal only to find out it was entree and there was lots more to come, and from that day on the food just keep on coming, I will miss our visits dropping in for a coffee and home made biscuits and I’ll miss not seeing you come thru our front door for favorite feed of beer battery flake chips and salad ,and having you over for a sleep over . I know Angie loved having you over with us and those time will be sadly missed. Rest in peace Lucia
Love Darren
