It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Francesco Manetta. He is predeceased by his parents Antonio and Clelia Manetta and brother Piero. He is survived by his wife, Lina of 62 years, children Angela, Piero (Tahirih), Antony (Ronnie) and Mike (Angela), grandchildren Mathew, Daniella, Alessia, Jaden, Francesco and Lola.
Francesco was a proud family man and a very successful business man with strong principles and work ethics which he instilled in his children. He was an avid gardener. His garden was chosen as the best garden in the lower mainland.
Services will be held at Our Lady of Sorrows Church 575 Slocan Street Vancouver on Saturday, May 6 at 1:30pm. Entombment will follow at the Ocean View Burial Park Grand Mausoleum.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the charity of your choice.
