Jennie Delvecchio
July 7th, 1933 – February 19th, 2021

DELVECCHIO Jennie (nee Hanchuk) — It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother on Friday, February 19th, 2021 in her 87th year. Surrounded by her family, she passed away peacefully at Health Sciences North in Sudbury. Beloved wife of the late Eddie Delvecchio for 60 years. Loving mother of Donna Williams (Mark), Diane Delvecchio, Denise Wharton (Jonathan), and Daniel Delvecchio (Brenda). Proud Baba of Evan, Aidan, Larisa, Gianna, and Elizabeth. Predeceased by her parents Michael and Stella Hanchuk. Cherished sister of the late Willa Kowalyk (Dave), the late Mary Reynolds, and the late Michael Hanchuk (Judi). Daughter-in-law of Giovanni and Tersilla Delvecchio both predeceased. She was a dear sister-in-law of Desolina Ciotti (John), Nello Delvecchio (Amelina), Diana Tomassini (Dolph), Eda Barsanti (Earl), Terry, (Bernice), Ermo (Rina), and Anna Barsanti (Earl) all predeceased. Beloved aunt of many nieces and nephews and loved by the many fur-babies she spoiled (late) Riley, (late) Lucky, (late) Bella, Diego, Luca, and Zoli. Jennie will be fondly remembered by many family and friends as a thoughtful and generous soul who never forgot a birthday and never let anyone leave without a second helping of her wonderful cooking. Although tiny in stature, she remained a beacon of strength for her family through the toughest of times. Donations in memory of Jennie to ARCH Hospice, St Mary’s Ukrainian Church in Sault Ste. Marie or the Sault Ste. Marie Humane Society would be greatly appreciated. A celebration of Jennie’s life will be held at a later date to be announced. Special thanks to Dr. Theresa Mirka for the care and compassion she provided for Jennie and her family. Arrangements entrusted to the Jackson & Barnard Funeral Home.
