Dear Family and Friends,

It is with profound sadness, yet immense gratitude for a life so beautifully lived, that we announce the peaceful passing of Bianca Santorio Veglio on June 27, 2026. Born in Alvignano, Italy, Bianca carried with her the warmth, strength, and traditions of her homeland throughout her life. She was the heart of our family—a woman of remarkable resilience, endless compassion, unwavering faith, and unconditional love. Her gentle spirit, warm smile, and selfless nature touched the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Bianca's greatest joy was her family. She devoted her life to loving, nurturing, and caring for those around her, leaving each of us with treasured memories, invaluable lessons, and a legacy of kindness that will live on for generations.

Bianca was predeceased by her beloved husband, Giovanni Veglio; her Beloved parents, Giulio Santorio and Elvira Santorio; her cherished siblings, Rosa Tomasone, Evelina Marra, and Raffaele Santorio. Though our hearts are deeply broken, we find comfort in knowing she has been peacefully reunited with those who went before her and is forever at peace.

Bianca is lovingly survived by her children: Maria Veglio Luke; Giuseppe Veglio, M.D. (Nicoletta); Elvita Veglio Fiorini (William); and Giulio Veglio (Ashley). She also leaves behind eight cherished grandchildren and three cherished great-grandchildren, all of whom brought immeasurable joy to her life.

Her love, wisdom, generosity, and unwavering devotion to her family will remain in their hearts forever. Though she is no longer with us in body, Bianca's spirit, love, and the values she instilled in her family will continue to live on through all who were blessed to know and love her.

Her family finds peace in knowing that her beautiful legacy of love, faith, and devotion will continue for generations to come.
