The Busnello family are sad to announce the passing of Paolino surrounded with the love of his family, at the Juravinski Hospital on February 14, 2014 at the age of 78. His sense of humour, courageous spirit and devotion of family carried him through his battle with cancer. Reunited with his beloved wife Maria (nee Viviani), cherished daughter Caterina “Catia”, and sister Antoinetta. Survived by his loving sons Tony (Debbie), Patrizio (Michelle), Loris and Paolo (Kelly).
