We knew Christoforo as Johnny. Johnny became our friend, mentor and our manufacturing partner over the last ten years. His passion dedication and skill combined with his fun loving sense of humour and warm hospitality could never be duplicated. We will miss his early morning calls, his spiked cappuccinos, and his wonderful lunches he prepared all in his small toaster oven. Johnny made everyone who entered feel welcome and we could see how Lisa Fashions become a hub for his business colleagues and friends as they all wanted to be around Johnny’s energy.
We love you Johnny and you will be dearly missed.
Leonarda and Family,
Our deepest sympathies and condolences to all. Johnny(Cristoforo) a special person, great friend and will be sadly missed by employees, clients, and suppliers. The clothing industry has suffered a huge loss. Always loved, never forgotten… Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

He was a kind, generous and loving person who always went out of his way to help someone! There are so many memorable moments that our families have shared through the many years! Our heartfelt condolences to the family and know, that although John is no longer physically here, he will forever live in our hearts. Thinking of you during this time of great of grief and sorrow!

Condolences from the Maglione Family. Maria worked at lisa Fashions for many many years and was very saddened to hear of Mr Johnny) passing.
Sad to say goodbye to a man who was so much larger than life he needed two first names. John/Chris was a true craftsman whose skill was matched only by his generosity. He took pride in the coats he made for us, but his eyes truly sparkled when he spoke of his family. If the success of a man is judged by how many he loved and how many loved him, then he left this world a very rich man… and that’s all any of us can ask for. Our sincere condolences to the Zitoli family.
We are very sorry to hear the passing of our dear friend Johnny. Our deepest heart felt condolences to the family. May you Rest In Peace.
From neighbour to friend to family, Chris/Johnny took us on a wonderful journey marked by laughter, Sunday drop-ins and backyard parties. He was the beacon on Harmony Hill with an irresistible charm and a smile that could be seen from a distance. He touched us with his generosity and his love for family and friends. We are forever grateful to have shared with him the precious gift of time.
Our love to Leonarda and family.
