Valerio, Faustina "Nana"
In Loving Memory of FAUSTINA "Nana" VALERIO Jan. 18, 1913 - S pt. 11, 2007 The matriarch of the VALERIO Family peacefully entered eternal rest early Tuesday morning, surrounded by her adoring family. Affectionately known as Nana to most, Faustina was born in Alamosa, Colorado, where she spent her youth and was married to Adolpho VALERIO. She and Adolpho had two sons, Nicholas and Gabriel, and adopted son Lawrence from her sister Susan. Adolpho and Gabriel preceded her in death in 1950. Strong-willed and ever-loving, Nana persevered and overcame heartbreak with her su rviving sons, and with Nicholas, moved to Los Angeles in 1951. Here, she thrived and saw her family grow over the next 50 years: she welcomed two more generations as well as always embracing extended family and loved ones. Nana is survived by her sons, Lawrence and Nicholas; 5 grandchildren; and 4 great-grandchildren. Nana's boundless love, laughter, wisdom and memory will be forever cherished by those whose lives she touched. Rosary will be held on Sept. 14, 2007 at noon at Holy Family Church in South Pasa dena with Mass immediately following. Internment will be with her husband and son at Mount Calvary Church in Alamosa, Colorado.
