elevated TTpI5 Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father and grandfather Giuseppe Antonio (Totto) Faraone.
God called Giuseppe home on Monday, October 13, 2025. He passed away suddenly and peacefully at Etobicoke General Hospital at the age of 90.
Giuseppe was the devoted husband of Rita Faraone (née Ieriti), with whom he shared 58 wonderful years of marriage since December 31, 1967.
He was the cherished father of Fernando (Diana) and Francesco (Patrizia), and the adored Nonno of Giuseppe, Veronica, and Nicole.
Giuseppe is now reunited in heaven with his parents, Armanda and Francesco, his brother Fernando, and his sister Angelina (Calabria, Italy). He leaves behind his loving sister Tersa (Francesco, predeceased), and will be deeply missed by his extended family and many dear friends.
Giuseppe’s legacy is one of strength, kindness, and unwavering devotion to his family and loved ones. He will be fondly remembered for his spirited coaching of his beloved Juventus team from his favorite chair, his ever-ready espresso machine, and the joy he found in preparing farfalle pasta with peas for his grandchildren.
Your thoughts, prayers, and kindness are deeply appreciated during this time of sorrow. Giuseppe will be lovingly remembered and never forgotten.

To the entire Faraone Family!
Extending our love and deepest sympathy for the unexpected passing of a father, hero and friend. During a time such as this it is often difficult for those who loved him to capture the essence of all the gifts that he brought to the world, during this time of sorrow and grief. We hope that you will gain strength through the memories and find comfort in the happiness and the time shared together and the lives that he touched. Be reminded that today is not goodbye rather, until we meet again surrounded by those that came before us. May God’s strength and hope cast away the tears and offer you grace knowing that he awaits Giuseppe at the Gates of Heaven, ready to welcome this wondrous man, reunited with those who have gone before us. Hoping that you will always know that we are here to walk through this journey and challenging time with each of you. With deepest sympathy. Trees quiet without the birds; although life quiets without this sweet man, your heart will forever be blanketed by everlasting memories.
Sandy, Daniela and Elvira
