Dear Lisa and Family,
I met Filomena in 1988 when she welcomed me to the Faculty of Administrative Studies with open arms.
I will miss her grace, her smile, and her magnetic energy.
Filomena's footprint will remain forever in the heart of the Schulich Community.
Fondly,
Susan Kimberley

In my more that four decades or knowing her, I have never known a staff member as consistently friendly and pleasant as Filomena. She was such a lovely person, who will be missed by many.

My thoughts are with your family. Filomena gave so much to the Schulich School and few will match her contributions over so many years.

I extend my sincere condolences to Filomena's family and close friends. Speaking with Filomena always lifted me up. I will always remember her for her kind and gentle nature.

Please accept my sincere sympathy for your loss. I admired her for her zest for life, her joyful flamboyance, and the bright positivity she brought to those around her. She was always fun to be around. May God Bless her and provide comfort to you and your family at this difficult time.
“Revelation 21.4: And God shall wipe away tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain; for the former things are passed away.”

I first met Filomena more than 37 years ago and yet, I will still miss her friendly and bubbly disposition. She was a good and kind soul. Condolences to her husband and family.
Donald Daly
Dr. Donald Daly, Professor of Economics, worked with Filomena from the time she arrived at York University until he retired. In addition to being colleagues for years, Filomena became a close family friend. She is pictured here at the Daly’s 75th Wedding Anniversary celebration, along with Dr. William (Bill) Jordan. At almost 100, Don remembers Filomena fondly and was terribly saddened to learn of her passing and lamented “she was so young…”. The whole Daly family will remember Filomena as a warm, energetic, generous and patient person who will be missed.

Filomena was a beautiful becon of light and radiance; one of the most memorable and special people at Schulich. It was a joy to see her smiling face as she walked into a room. She will be greatly missed and remembered always. My personal, warm and heartfelt wishes to the family as you cope with your loss.
With my deepest sympathy

I first met Filomena 32 years ago. When she saw me, she said hello and I said hello. She thought I was a student and I thought she was a student! When I discovered that she was our Administrative Assistant we laughed. She loved engaging people – yes even academics! Filomena was always positive, responsive, and cheerful with everyone she met. Very few people had the level of energy and commitment to the Area and School. She strived for excellence not only from herself but others as well! I will miss her laugh - heaven has gained an angel.
