In Loving Memory of Michael Stellato
It is with unimaginable sadness and broken hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Michael Stellato, at the age of 35.
Michael was a loving son, brother, grandson, boyfriend, nephew, cousin and friend. He was a young man with a heart of gold, a beautiful smile and a personality that could light up any room. His infectious laughter, quick wit and wonderful sense of humour made him someone people naturally gravitated towards. Wherever Michael was, there was laughter, happiness and life. He truly was the life of the party.
Michael lived life with passion and enthusiasm. He had a deep love for hockey and golf, but some of his happiest moments were spent playing hockey and making memories with his closest friends. He loved being surrounded by the people who meant the most to him. It was the simple moments, the jokes, the friendships and the laughter that made life so special to Michael.
Above all, Michael was deeply loved by his family. His presence brought so much happiness into their lives, and his absence leaves a heartbreak that words cannot begin to describe. He leaves behind a lifetime of beautiful memories and an impact on so many hearts that will never be forgotten.
Michael will be forever loved and sadly missed by his devoted parents, Franca and Eugene Stellato, his beloved brother, David Stellato, and his loving girlfriend, Vanessa De Francesca. He will also be deeply missed by his cherished grandmother, aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family and countless friends whose lives he touched.
Though his time with us was far too short, the love, laughter and memories Michael gave us will remain in our hearts forever. His beautiful smile will never be forgotten, and the joy he brought to those around him will live on through everyone who had the privilege of knowing and loving him.
Forever loved. Forever missed. Never forgotten.
My condolences to the family for this profoundly saddening loss. Losing a loved one on the week of All Souls is a saddening thing to witness in the human race. Thoughts and prayers are with the Stellato family and may God be there for you during these very difficult days ahead. Thoughts, prayers & blessings, Stefan Tomasi (relative Emily Filippelli Pietrantonio’s friend & member of Young Adult Autism Group of Meet on the Spectrum at the Vaughan City Grill).
Eternal rest grant unto Michael.
My sincerest condolences to his entire family.
Michael was a familiar and cherished presence in the hallways of Brebeuf. May you find solace in his laughter, the beautiful memories you shared, and the lasting impact he had on those fortunate enough to know him.
May Jesus walk beside you through this time of sorrow as Michael enters the gates of Heaven. May his light shine upon you now and always, bringing you comfort, strength, and peace.
May he rest in eternal peace.
Franca, Eugene, David and Family…..i dont have any words to say ……l loved Michael…he was always happy, bubbly, polite and fun to speak with……He will never ever be forgotten……Franca, your loss breaks my heart…..i love you and will always be here for you….Joanne and Celeste…xo

Sousa/Fernandes family
I am so profoundly sorry for the loss of this wonderful young man. By all accounts, MIchael was just a really good person! I have never met MIchael but my one son worked with him and both sons have golfed with Michael. The news of Michael’s accident has haunted me and everyone I know for the whole week. My thoughts and prayers are with all of his loved ones. Our hearts are with you all.
I am deeply saddened to hear of Michael’s passing at such a young age. Michael was one of the very first Grade 9 students at St. Jean de Brebeuf CSH in 2005, and I will always remember his warm smile, wonderful sense of humour, laughter, and kind heart. He was a great young man who left a lasting impression on me.
My heartfelt condolences go out to his parents, family, and all of his friends who will miss him dearly. May God welcome this young man into His loving arms and grant comfort and strength to all those who mourn his loss.
Sending my deepest condolences to the Stellato Family & Vanessa for this incredible and heartbreaking loss.
May he rest in peace.
To the Stellato family, friends and loved ones… on behalf of myself Robert Gladstone and my family our heartfelt condolences. Being part of the Ball Hockey community it was impossible not to know Michael. There were many times where I had the opportunity to watch Michael excel at the sport on the floor at the highest of levels but more importantly over the years on a couple of occasions I was able to know him a little more as a person off the floor as I shared some time hanging out with teams he played on and I am glad I had that opportunity as I enjoyed our conversations. There is not much that can be said during times like this but to let you know behind the scenes how many people in the Ball Hockey community are devasted and how sad they are with this loss which speaks volumes of how Michael was thought of by many.
My heart felt condolences to Michael’s family, I am new to the Crupi group & never met Michael. But just looking at his warm smile looks like he was a gentle soul. Heaven has definitely gain another Angel. Sending prayers to the family during this very difficult time.
Eugene, Franca and David.
My heartfelt Condolences to you and your extended family.
I met Michael briefly last summer and it felt like I knew him his whole life. Very nice young man!
Michael may you rest in heavenly peace. Rest 💙🙏💙
Lucy Mancini & Family
So sorry for your loss. I didn’t know Michael personally but play in the ball hockey league he was in and heard nothing but great things about what a great person he was from teammates and the dozens of posts online. My deepest condolences
My deepest condolences to Michael’s family. I had the pleasure of working with Michael, and he was truly such a good guy. He was always so kind and a pleasure to be around. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time. May he rest in peace. ❤️
Annie and I want to send our deepest, deepest condolences to all family, friends and co-workers of Michael, especially sincerest thoughts to Franca and Eugene, two of the most wonderful people that I have ever encountered.
Michael was a big part of The Vaughan Panthers 91’s hockey team in which Tony and I coached. Michael was an excellent player and teammate but also added a good sense of humour and fun to the team, he was always smiling.
Our thoughts, prayers and love are with the family in this difficult time.
Rest in Peace.
Michael,
I just ran into you at the dentist’s office, where you had the opportunity to meet my younger daughter. We spoke about how you were planning to come visit us at St. Jean de Brebeuf. I mentioned how much your former teachers would have loved to see you again, so many years after your graduation. When I returned to the school, I even let everyone know that you would be coming.
I honestly cannot believe the news. You will be deeply missed, especially that incredible sense of humour that very few people possess. I will always remember you as one of my very first students as an educator. It was a privilege to have been part of your journey, and I am truly saddened by your passing.
Rest in peace, Michael.
My deepest condolences to family, R.I.P. 🙏❤️
The St. Gregory the Great community joins in mourning the loss of Michael, Class of 2005. We extend our heartfelt condolences to Michael’s family and loved ones.
Michael will be remembered as a respectful, quiet, and happy student who was well liked by his peers. He was never one to seek attention, but rather showed his kindness through the quiet ways he supported others, especially while playing school sports.
Eternal rest, dear Michael. You will be fondly remembered and deeply missed.
