LAKEPORT, Calif. – Victoria Tanti, a longtime resident of Lakeport, passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by her loved ones on Tuesday, Feb. 6, 2018.

Victoria was born in Sliema, Malta on Jan. 17, 1937, to the late Michael and Philipa Aquilina. She was one of five brothers and four sisters.

Victoria was married for over 60 years to John Tanti. She is survived by her four loving children, Theresa (Carlos), Mark, Julie (Darin) and Charles; nine grandchildren, Josh (Jennifer), Steven (Clare), Jaclyn, Garrett, Janae (Ben), Shane, Kristen, Mitchell and Jacob; and four great-grandchildren, Gemma, Dylan, Josie and Hunter. She was adored by her family and always held her family close to her heart.

Victoria loved to cook; she cooked organic before organic was popular. Always surrounding the ones she loved by delicious meals and conversation. She enjoyed knitting and became a master knitter, making blankets and scarves for her family and friends. For many years she knitted baby blankets for children that were diagnosed with terminal diseases. Making beautiful gifts for children gave her a sense of purpose and pride.

She will be missed but her memories will carry us all through the days ahead.

A private memorial is being planned for the family.
