Anna Maria Boccari 18 May, 1944 – 26 April, 2023

Raff, Amalia, Rosanna and Anthony

Ciao cara Anna e Zia, From la famiglia Muollo to la famiglia Boccari – different names but same family. Raffaele, Amalia, Rosanna and Anthony are here today, in heart, to say we love you our beautiful Anna and Zia and we will never forget how much you meant to us and how much we miss you. So many great memories, certainly too many to mention, but we know that in the years to come we will still be reflecting on how special you were in our lives and the happy times we shared together. You left your beloved Marina di Puolo, Italia (kicking and screaming apparently – but we don’t blame you for that) to Melbourne, Australia where you settled with your parents, brothers and sister. You then went on to have a family of your own and the fun times we had in Lesden St, Moray St, Keerok Ave and Callistemon Ave were a party on another level. In true Italian style, plenty of food, fun, laughs and as for noise control – forget it! Always the devoted wife and mother, hard worker and part of a pizza-making family legacy! Your endless love, your heart felt generosity, your shining eyes when you smiled and your love for those that were lucky enough to have you in their lives. A sister who Raffaele never had, a precious and another mother to Rosanna and Anthony, and most importantly a sister that Amalia will cherish forever. Yes, we have photos, we have memories and we still have your children and grandchildren that will live on and keep your memory alive. You were so full of life and had a personality that lit up the room so we know your spirit will be with us and watching over us when we need that special X-Factor. Cara Anna, we love you. Cara Zia, we love you more. Riposa in pace e vola con gli angeli – Rest in peace and fly with the angels.
