elevated 8Yz0D Obituary
elevated 8Yz0D Loving friend to all, Fred Giardino passed away at 88 years old, on Monday, October 21, 2019. He was surrounded by his loving family in his last days.
elevated 8Yz0D Born in Rocco San Giovanni, Italy in 1931, many of us will remember the fondness with which he recounted his immigration to Canada in 1948 and subsequent successes in love and profession. Fred was at his happiest with his friends and family, both in Canada and Italy, and there will never be enough space to hold the names of the people who had space in his heart. Fred was a devoted husband to his wife Mary (nee Lofeodo), and father to Anthony (Alda), Angela Cinapri (Claudio) and Robert (Carol). He is cherished by his loving sister, Anna Lombardi. His grandchildren Michelle, Robert, Lisa (Grant), Adriana and great-grandchildren Tegan, Wyatt and Edie will always lovingly remember him as Sho-Sho. He lived a full life, truly enjoying himself and spending every day exuberant for the time to bring joy to other people’s lives.
