We remember Blessed Armida 70 years after returning to the Father's house
room of Armida Barelli at the Villa di Marzio (Varese)

The last stage in the life of Armida Barelli he brought out all the faith and all the courage. The bulbar paralysis that had struck her was and is a terrible disease that gradually leads to suffocation.

Barelli faced the disease "from the hands of God" as his faith, his hope and his charity demanded. The first symptoms appeared in September 1949. he dies in Marzio at the dawn of the solemnity of the Assumption, August 15, 1952

Agostino Gemelli wrote about the moment of his death: "Armida Barelli when he waved his hand to me for the last time, a few hours before he died, he smiled. Perhaps the Lord had already made her understand that the joy of seeing him face to face awaited her shortly thereafter. And this was the reward of a life spent exclusively for him. "
