Going to miss you Ezio…really enjoyed sharing those Toronto Maple Leafs season tickets together at Maple Leafs Gardens. They weren’t the best tickets but we really loved the Leafs and were big fans in the 70’s. In the summer we shared season tickets for the Toronto Argonauts. Leon McQuay dropped the ball at the 1 yard line and lost the Grey Cup we gave up our season tickets in disgust. Lot’s of memories, only good memories, no bad memories. You were one of a kind, a real character guy, you showed so much courage in your fight, they’ll never be another. We’ll miss you….
You will be missed Ezio, great father, husband, and brother in law. Nice guy, always kind with his family in Mexico, he loved mexican food , many memories with him. We will miss him.
Dear Gloria and Isabella, I am sorry to hear about Ezio’s passing. We were childhood friends and were schoolmates at Lillian Public. I remember him being so funny and a mellow guy. I heard about his battle with MS and am sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace.
Thank you very much, what a lovely memory.
Gloria and Isabella

My dear Gloria and Isabella, I cannot tell you how devastated I am over your terrible loss. I know exactly how you are feeling having been there myself many years ago. Ezio was a very sweet man with a gentle soul who will be missed by all who knew him. I was so hoping to see him one last time. I take comfort in the fact that he is no longer suffering. I also take comfort that he is now with Kathy and the two of them will be watching over all of us. May he rest in peace.
I will continue to pray for you while mourning with your family and loved ones. Through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
I ricordi piu’ belli, il tennis e I pranzi a casa con gli amici. Sempre eleganti mai presuntuosi, la Vera amicizia e’ semplice , era la nostra . Un abbraccio ancora ,come sempre auguri per rivederci..
Hi Ezio you are my #1 brother. I can’t say that we hung out together growing up. We were several years apart in age and you had your close friends to go to sports events with. You played hard and I know you worked harder. Thank you for coming to my rescue and helping me in my times of difficulty nearly 23 years ago. You stayed by my side helping me grow strong again. I was honoured to have you as the best man at my wedding. Your courage has been an example to me and others for how valiantly you fought MS for 11 years. I love with all my heart. I will miss you my loving brother
