Franco Latini

July 23, 1935 - October 2, 2017

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Franco. Loving husband of 61 years to Rina Latini (Zenobi), adoring father to Sandra Latini (Lewis Baios) and Marisa Latini (John Wen), proud grandfather to Alexander, Stefanie and Julien. Predeceased by his parents Giovanni Latini and Ernesta Latini (Gentelucci). Survived by brother Luigi Latini and sister Rosa Biancini (Latini).

Originally from Cerreto d'Esi, Italy, Franco came to Toronto as a young man and found his calling in real estate investment. Friends and family will always remember a fun-loving man with a passion for life. He loved his cottage, the outdoors, and hunting trips with his buddies. He was very social and joked around with everyone. He was a strong patriarch whose favourite time was when the whole family was together. He was spoiled everyday by his wife and life partner, whom he adored.

Sandra, Marisa, Alexander, Stefanie and Julien are rich in the blessing of growing up with and being loved by the most incredible father and grandfather. He guided us and showed us by example how to live life well. He paved the way for a fruitful future, and we know that our eternal connection with him will hold us up and guide us through our life journeys.

We will miss that big smile and twinkle in his eye. He will be in our hearts forever and always.

In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Franco may be sent to the Canadian Cancer Society.
