elevated O28hm Obituary
elevated O28hm With broken hearts, we share the passing of our sweet and joyful boy, Zachary Joseph D’Amico, who left this world far too soon at the age of five. Loved beyond measure, Zachary will forever be held close in the hearts of his devoted parents, Lisa and Aldo, and cherished by his adoring older siblings, Theodora and Alexander.
elevated O28hm A treasured grandson to Franca, Tony, Anna, and Eric, Zachary was also a beloved nephew to Maria (Nicola) and Sabrina (Mauro), and a loving cousin to Vincent, Nicholas, Cassia, and Christa. Though no longer by our side, he will live on forever in our hearts.
elevated O28hm After a courageous battle with AFM, Zach is now free—running, jumping, and playing, just as he did before and longed to do again. In his final act of bravery, our little superhero gave the gift of life by donating his organs to help other children and families.
elevated O28hm Zachary’s light, laughter, and love will continue to shine through all who knew him—and in the lives he has now saved.
elevated O28hm We are deeply grateful for the overwhelming love and support we’ve received. In lieu of flowers, donations to The Hospital for Sick Children or Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital would be greatly appreciated.
elevated O28hm To honour Zach’s love for sports, we kindly invite you to wear a sports jersey as we celebrate his beautiful life.
I am so sorry for your loss. Keeping all of you in my prayers.
My deepest sympathy.
He will be in the light of the sun, brightness of the moon, and in the twinkle of the stars.
He is being called home to a place so perfect in light, rest and love.
His soul will forever be present in memories, as his light will never fade, and he will remain forever eternal.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
All of our love. Forever connected.

They are joyfully jumping and laughing in the presence of the God who created them and loves them in the place where there is no more death. And when it is our time, we will see them again by God’s grace through Jesus Christ! May God continue to comfort you and give you hope in the coming days and months. Matthew 5:4
