It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Francesco Antonio Forgione on June 5, 2026, at Hennick Humber Hospital, surrounded by his loving family, at the age of 89. He was preceded in death by his first wife, Michelina (Oct. 1982), and his second wife, Hortensia (Jan. 2019). Loving father of Carmine (Elizabeth) and Angelo (Odilia). Proud Nonno of Pamela, Francesco, Marlina, Nadia and David. Cherished Bisnonno of Mya and Mariah. Dear brother of Antonio, Caterina, Angela, Carmela, Salvatore and Giuseppina.
