Memorial trees planted for:
Gladys M Rizzi
<p>Gladys Lara De Rizzi, nacida en Barranquilla, Colombia emigro a Venezuela en su temprana juventud donde conocio al amor de su vida, Saverio Rizzi. Alli formo una familia que en los 90s con mucho esfuerzo y sacrificio emigro a NY donde empezaron de nuevo e hicieron camino. </p><p><br></p><p>Ella siempre fuerte frente a todas las adversidades fue ejemplo de vida, valor y amor. Amo y lucho por su familia a capa y espada. Siempre pendiente sus familiares y amigos, siempre cerca a pesar de la distancia utilizando el puente de las redes sociales, sin olvidar una llamada telefonica de horas!! </p><p><br></p><p>Su bella sonrisa demostraba lo alegre que era. Le encantaba la musica, el ballenato, el merengue, la cumbia, el porro. Le gustaba cantar como Libertad La Marque y escuchar a Daniel Santos, Julio Jaramillo y bailar al ritmo de la Sonora Matancera y BIllo. Compartio su amor por el baseball y los juegos de azar con familia y amigos. Los Domingos eran dias de comer pasta y jugar Romi, Gandio, o Jiley. Estaba siempre al dia con las noticias y el tiempo para ver cuando lloveria o pasaria un huracan. Pero lo que mas disfrutaba era regalar, su tiempo, su atencion, sus ricos platos con un amor sin reservas. En un mensaje su sobrina Nella dice: “Hay pocas personas como mi tia en el mundo, que se hacen querer en unas pocas horas”. Su cunado recuerda en Italia cuando subio a los arboles de Oliva a sus 40 anos de edad como lo hacia en los arboles de Guayaba en su infancia. Asi era ella, alma, vida y corazon. Se despidio de este mundo el 12 de Abril de 2025, con su deseo concedido por nuestro Dios misericordioso, de una manera repentina y sin dolor. Quedamos en este mundo mucha familia y amistades que la amamos y la llevaremos por siempre en nuestros corazones. </p><p><br></p><p>Le preceden su amado esposo Saverio, adoradas hijas Belkis y Diana, sus hermanos Edgardo y Sonia. Deja atras a su hija Finella (su neni), yerno MIguel, su consentido nieto Bruce y esposa Tara, sus bisnietos Saverio y Lorenzo, su hermana Maria y sobrinos Betty, Angelica, John y Keydi, sus yernos Edison y Paul, sus ahijados Gregory y Mari, sus primas Lara, Gomez, Bosio, Navarro y su Tia Olga, sus sobrinos y cunados en Sannicandro, Losito, Colatorti, Mariani, Lobalsamo. Descansa en Paz Eterna. </p><p><br></p><p>Te amaremos por siempre mi dulce madre.</p><p><br></p><p>El velorio se llevará a cabo el viernes 18 de abril de 2025 de 4 p.m. a 7 p.m. en la Funeraria Mastapeter, 400 Faitoute Ave., Roselle Park. Con un servicio que se realizará a las 17 horas. </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p> * * * * *</p><p><br></p><p>Gladys Lara De Rizzi, born in Barranquilla, Colombia immigrated to Venezuela in her early youth where she met the love of her life, Saverio Rizzi. There they formed a family in the 90s, with a lot of effort and sacrifice emigrated to NY where they started again and made their way. </p><p><br></p><p>She was always strong in the face of all adversities, she was an example of life, courage and love. She loved and fought for her family tooth and nail. Always attentive to family and friends, always close despite the distance using the bridge of social networks, without forgetting a phone call for hours!! </p><p><br></p><p>Her beautiful smile showed how cheerful she was. She loved music, ballenato, merengue, cumbia, and porro. She liked to sing like Libertad La Marque and listen to Daniel Santos, Julio Jaramillo and dance to the rhythm of the Sonora Matancera and BIllo. She shared her love of baseball and gambling with family and friends. Sundays were days of eating pasta and playing Romi, Gandio, or Jiley. She was always up to date with the news and the weather to see when it would rain or a hurricane would pass. But what she enjoyed most was giving away her time, her attention, her delicious dishes with unreserved love. In a message her niece Nella says: "There are few people like my aunt in the world, who make themselves loved in a few hours." Her brother-in-law remembers in Italy when she climbed the trees of Oliva at 40 years of age as she did in the Guava trees in her childhood. That was how she was, full of soul, life and heart. </p><p><br></p><p>She said goodbye to this world on April 12, 2025, with her wish granted by our merciful God, in a sudden and painless way. There are many family and friends left in this world who love her and will carry her forever in our hearts. </p><p><br></p><p>She is preceded by her beloved husband Saverio, adored daughters Belkis and Diana, and her brothers Edgardo and Sonia. She leaves behind his daughter Finella (her baby), son-in-law Miguel, her spoiled grandson Bruce and wife Tara, her great-grandchildren Saverio and Lorenzo, her sister Maria and nieces /nephews Betty, Angelica, John and Keydi, his sons-in-law Edison and Paul, her godchildren Gregory and Mari, her cousins Lara, Gomez, Bosio, Navarro and her Aunt Olga, her nephews and brothers-in-law in Sannicandro, Losito, Colatorti, Mariani, Lobalsamo.</p><p><br></p><p>Rest in eternal peace. We will love you forever my sweet mother.</p><p><br></p><p>Visitation will be held on Friday, April 18, 2025 from 4pm to 7pm in the Mastapeter Funeral Home, 400 Faitoute Ave., Roselle Park. With a service to be held at 5pm . </p><p><br></p><p><br></p>July 3, 1936 - April 12, 202507/03/193604/12/2025
