RHOV’s Mary Zilba Opens Up About Grieving Process In Wake Of Her Late Mother’s Death; Says “I Am Having Such A Difficult Time Coping”

Mary Zilba took to her Instagram Story to reveal that she is having a hard time coping with the passing of her late mother Carole Juliana Bauer Zilba. "It's been about a month and a half since my mama passed and as much as I try, I am having such a difficult time coping," the Real Housewives of Vancouver alum wrote.


Zilba then asked her followers if they can recommend any "helpful" books or movies to help her heal her grieving process.

"Can anyone recommend any helpful books/movies/etc on grieving, afterlife, hope? I'd be so grateful."

Last month, the Singer and mother-of-three shared the sad news on her Instagram page. "IN LOVING MEMORY of my beloved mama taken to soon... Thank you all for your countless prayers for my beautiful mother," she wrote.

"Very Sadly however, after the most courageous fight of her life for over two weeks in 2 different hospitals, God took her away from us. As she gave us our first breath, all of her children stood by her bedside as she took her last," she continued. "We are simply gutted and words can never describe the pain and loss we are feeling right now. This simply shouldn’t have happened to her. It’s the most difficult part to accept when what should have been routine surgery, went tragically wrong. Surgeon slip up damaged her heart and ultimately took her life. We are in a state of shock and can’t seem to grasp the harsh reality of what happened to her."

"I will miss you everyday of my life mama - I love you beyond my words and will always remember your elegance, kindness, vitality and the unconditional love you showered on everyone you ever met - especially your children."

"I wish God would have granted you that miracle we were all praying for because you 100% deserved one," she added. "With your devout faith and service to God your entire life, I will forever be confused. I need to figure out a way to understand it all as it has shaken my faith a bit. I guess for now I have to accept that heaven just couldn’t wait any longer to call you back home ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️," she concluded.

In the post, Zilba shared multiple photos of her mother as well as a newspaper article about her mother's passing. Carole passed away on February 26, 2020. The article states that she “transitioned after a courageous fight following complications during an elective cardio surgery.”

She is survived by her husband George, sister Dorothy Dunco, children: Juliana Furay (Rick), Jeffrey (Leslie), Mary, George, Gregory (Stacey), Lisa, Joey (Betsy). She has 16 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren, and extended family member Michael Militano.

Services were held in Sylvania, Ohio. Also, donations were made in her honor to Christ Child Society and Central Catholic High School.
