Francesco is survived by his loving wife of 50 years, Gina (nee Turco) and his beloved children Peter (Cynthia Guarraci) and Mary (Sal Ammirato). He was a proud Nonno to Sofia & Francesco and Arianna, Corrado & Gia. He cherished his grandchildren and embraced every moment that he spent with his immediate and extended family.

He was passionate about his heritage and continued many of the traditions that he inherited from his native country, Italy.
