On Wednesday, October 12, CÉLINE SCHEMBRI WISMAYER, widow of Dr Lino Schembri Wismayer and mother of the late Mario, passed away peacefully into the eternal life she believed so fervently in, aged 84, comforted by the last rites of Holy Church.

Her irreparable loss is mourned by her beloved Claude Marguerat, her children Nurtan and Julienne, their spouses and partners Sandro, Giuseppe, and Patricia; her precious grandchildren Maia and Andrew, Nicola and Jacob, Amik and John, Timothy and Valerie, Max and Jesmond, and by her great blessing, beloved great-grandson Michael.

She is survived by her treasured only sister Mariquita Degabriele, numerous in-laws, nephews, nieces, and special friends, including Salvina Lanfranco and the Brotherhood of the Neocathecumenal Way.

The funeral will take place on Saturday, October 15, at Sacro Cuor parish church, Sliema, at 9am.

Patrons are explicitly requested not to wear funereal colours, such as black.

Céline wishes this to be a celebration of her life and not one tinged with sadness and regret. 

Requiescet in Pace. 

Her family wish to thank the doctors, nurses, and all the staff of the Medical Ward at Mater Dei Hospital for their boundless care and devotion.
