elevated ZLbsp Obituary
elevated ZLbsp Our family cannot find the words to express the profound loss of our father, nonno, bisnonno Gino. Gino passed away peacefully at home at the age of 98 surrounded by his loved ones. He is now reunited with the love of his life of 69 years Silvana, along with his siblings and family.
elevated ZLbsp Gino lived his life with incredible discipline, integrity, strength, courage and strong values, even in the toughest times. His work ethic and life attitude will be an inspiration to us all. He will be remembered for his love of family, his strong but kind character, and his commitment to helping others from the moment he came to Canada. Gino had a quiet resilience about him but he had a sense of humour to the end.
elevated ZLbsp Gino truly enjoyed his time spent at the cottage and in Acapulco even though he never was a fan of the water. His haven was his farm, which gave him solace. Gino loved his garden and was so proud of his produce. He was continually active in his workshop building projects. The stories he told and wisdom he shared with his children and grandchildren will always be remembered.
elevated ZLbsp We cannot imagine a life without you. You will be deeply missed.
elevated ZLbsp Special thanks to Rose for her care, devotion and providing much comfort to Gino and his family. Thanks also to Mary Anne and his caregiver team.
