It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Ivano Serpa. God called onto Ivano on Tuesday, January 14, 2025 and he passed away peacefully at Collingwood General Hospital. He is survived by Rosie, his former spouse and mother of his loving sons Lucas and Julian. Cherished brother of Frank (Carla), Salvatore, Luciano and Tony Aquino, and sisters-in-law Pina and Josie, and siblings-in-law Robert(Connie) and Effie(Adrian). Devoted uncle to his many nieces and nephews. Ivano will be sadly missed and fondly remembered by all his extended family and friends.
Ivano was a tireless champion of many different organizations and charities through his life. In lieu of flowers, you can honour his memory through a donation to the Metamorphosis Centre For Change, where he was most recently dedicating his efforts and time.

To Rosie, Julian and Lucas and to the entire Serpa Family:
It is with heavy hearts that we express our most heartfelt and deepest condolence to you and the entire family. Words cannot express the sadness and disbelief that we all feel, our hearts are heavy knowing our friend Ivano is no longer with us.
We met through hockey as our children played together and will always remember what a charismatic, fun loving guy he was, always with a smile on his face.
There are no words we can say to ease the pain you all are feeling, but know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. May God give you all the strength to carry on and may it bring you comfort knowing that you have an angel looking over you. He will be missed and never forgotten.
May he rest in eternal peace.

Mike, Lily, Michael and Nicholas Messina
Sending the Serpa family my sincerest condolences. Gone way too soon. May Ivano rest in peace.
As neighbors to Rosie and meeting Ivano so many times, we are sadden and can’t believe the loss. Our prayers go out to the family and especially to the kids who will most likely be missing their father more and more as time goes on.
God will make sure that Ivano is now in Peace, and know that he will be smiling on us everyday.
