Family shattered by crash
Joanna PILARINOS and her mother, Christine FOSTER, were positive, loving people, kin say.
By April KEMICK, Free Press Reporter, Tues., February 7, 2006
A Dorchester family is struggling to cope with an unthinkable loss in the aftermath of a crash Sunday that killed a mother and daughter.
Joanna PILARINOS, 16, and her mother, Christine FOSTER, 45, died Sunday afternoon when their van collided with a train in Thames Centre.
PILARINOS, a beginner driver described as a "vibrant, popular" teen, was behind the wheel when the van slid onto the snow-covered tracks at Shaw Road north of Catherine Street.
The van was pushed more than 500 metres down the tracks by a Via Rail train.
"We were all really tight," Spiro PILARINOS said of his mother, sister and stepfather, Carey FOSTER.
"I feel so dislocated and lost," he said.
"I am going through every emotion possible."
The 29-year-old, who was visiting from Toronto for the weekend, said his mom and sister were out shopping for school supplies when the crash happened.
Yesterday would have been his sister's first day back in Grade 11 classes at Regina Mundi College after the exam period.
The "high-achieving, studious" teen wanted to have fresh supplies to start the second term off right, Spiro PILARINOS said.
"She always did really well in school," he said. "She got straight As and she was very goal-oriented."
Ted GORSKI, principal at Regina Mundi, said yesterday was a sombre day at the school.
"The teachers and students were just crushed by the news," he said.
"Joanna was a beautiful girl with a beautiful personality," he said, adding the school will hold a special mass today in her honour.
The tall, athletic teen was an optimistic girl who loved to "see possibilities in everything," her brother said.
"She was always looking for opportunities, for ways to make things better," he said. "She was very passionate and caring."
Her positive attitude and determined character were traits she shared with her mother, Christine, a Kellogg's employee for 25 years, he said.
Christine's supportive, accepting parenting style made it easy for him and his sister to be close to their mom, Spiro PILARINOS said.
She was a good listener who made it known she loved her kids no matter what, he said.
"My mother was so supportive," he said. "If we ever needed to confide in anyone, she was always there. She was so accepting and loving."
The two were both avid readers who liked to shop -- a pastime they often shared, he said.
"They were very close," Spiro PILARINOS said.
He said there's no one thing he'll miss most about his mom and younger sister, whom he talked to almost daily from Toronto.
"I'm going to miss everything," he said. "There's no words to describe how much I'm going to miss them."
