Stefano was born in Sicily (Delia) and in 1956, he immigrated to Toronto, Canada. In 1961, he was joined by his late wife, Epifania, and his four children. Stefano was the loving father of Calogero (Josie), Tony (Rosa), Susie and Piera. Adored nonno of Liliana (Anthony), Steven (Stephanie), Giselle (Jayden), Olivia, Stefan (Georgia), Elysa (Olivier), Ema, Deanna, Emily, and Aimee. Bisnonno (great grand-father) to Bianca, Gabriel, Alessio, Sofia, Jude, Joey, Antoinette, and Louis. Stefano was predeceased by his siblings Calogera, Leonardo, Giuseppe and Gaetano. Nonno Stefano was a family man and was at his happiest when all his children and grandchildren were over to see him. A close second to his love of family was his garden where he spent full days out there pulling out nonna’s flowers to make room for his vegetables (which he never ate). We will miss his sense of humour and his singing. RIP papa/nonno. You will be so missed!
