elevated I8PJB Obituary

elevated I8PJB It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved father, Delfino Foglia at the age of 88, on December 30, 2019 in Milton, Ontario.  Delfino was a devoted husband to the late Pina for 61 years.

elevated I8PJB Beloved father of Silvana, Ida and Ivana (Jody), and loving Nonno to Connie (Alex), Michael, Crystal (Jay), Dusty, Cassi (Kain), Marci and Cayla (Mackenzie). Delfino was the proud bisnonno to three great-grandchildren; Natalia, Myla, and Zoey. Delfino will be missed by many.

elevated I8PJB Born in Italy during a tumultuous time, he dreamt that one day he would be given the opportunity for a better life. He boarded the boat to Canada at a very young age in hopes of fulfilling that dream and he did. Unable to speak the language and with very little resources he was able to secure a job, send money home to Italy in order to a build house for his parents and start a family of his own. He met Pina and his whole world changed.  He lived a beautiful life.

elevated I8PJB He will forever be remembered as a hard worker, excellent bacce player, the ultimate gardener and so proud of his wine making.  

elevated I8PJB Donations in Delfino’s memory may be made to Colon Cancer Canada.
