elevated D6ocL Forever In Our Hearts and Memories
elevated D6ocL
elevated D6ocL It is with broken hearts and unimaginable sadness that we mourn the passing of Mike DePinto, who passed away peacefully at MacKenzie Health Hospital in his 67th year. He will be cherished and forever missed by his beloved Mother Lucia, sister Rochelle Wiesenfahrt (Robert), niece Lucia Tumber (Kent), nephew Paul van der Spuy (Saskia), nephews Jean-Pierre Gagne and Nick Hancock, great-nephews Myles, Owen, Luke and Rylan, great-niece Kate-Lynn Avbar, and fondly remembered by his relatives and many friends.
elevated D6ocL Mike will be deeply missed by Michael Rolanty, colleague and dear friend of 45 years, and many co-workers, contractors and friends from the TTC Wilson Construction Team. As a Senior Construction Engineer, Mike made an indelible impression on everyone who had the pleasure and privilege of working with him over his 40 year tenure with the TTC, and his loyalty and dedication was an inspiration to all who knew him.
elevated D6ocL Mike had no children of his own and lovingly assumed the role of second Father to Jean-Pierre and Nick. In good health Mike loved to go fishing, enjoyed playing craps at the casino, and vacation by the ocean in Puerto Vallarta. He had a great sense of humour and quick wit about him, had tremendous appreciation for music and loved action and comedic movies. He lived a good life, which he himself would comment on often; a life like only he could live, on his own terms, the way he wanted. It is with heavy hearts we say goodbye, knowing he is re-united in Heaven with his Father Nicola, sister Mary Gagne and baby brother Michael.
elevated D6ocL In keeping with Mike’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A private entombment at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery in Thornhill will be held in the near future.

I have known Mike since 1982 when I joined the TTC I will miss him and his wit. The two Mikes we’re working at the TTC concrete labs at Victoria Park Station when we meet and we became friends. He will be sorely missed be everyone he came in contact with.
Sorry to everyone for your loss. I knew Michael as a little boy. He was very funny.
My deepest condolences to the De Pinto family, Mike Rolanty and the TTC family for this tremendous loss. I fortunately had the pleasure of working with Mike, mainly during the early stages of my career at the TTC, and will forever cherish those memories. He provided guidance, assistance and mentorship to myself and others and most of all his humour put smiles on our faces.
He will truly be missed.
Dear Rochelle Patty and I are so sorry for your loss. Mike sounds like a great guy and I’m sure will be sadly missed. I’m sure his memories will keep him with you in your heart and mind🙏🏻

You could always count on Mike to make you laugh or give you advice… or tell you how much air was in the concrete by eye. He was a friend and mentor to so many of us at TTC and will be dearly missed at Wilson.

I send condolences to all Mike’s family and friends. I never met him, but wish I had. By all accounts he was a loving and very funny chap, much loved by all who knew him.
Special love to his Mother as a parent should never bury a child.
My deepest heartfelt condolences go out to the DePinto family, friends and co-workers of the TTC “family”….Mike was an outstanding inspector, a mentor and an inspiration (as well as a good friend) to many of us, over decades of true service to the Commission. Mike will be greatly missed.
Rest in peace, Mike…you’re one of the best.
So very sad to hear of this tragic news. Mike was a wonderful soul. One of the first people I had the pleasure to work with and left a lasting impression. As he was always smiling and joking and kind and patient. May he rest in heaven. My condolences to the DePinto family and to all his dear close friends that burden the pain of his loss. The world needs more people like MIKE!!!
My condolences to the DePinto family and to all who have lost a dear friend. He was a special person and will truly be missed.
RIP Mike.
My deepest condolences to everyone who knew Mike. He had a special way of lightening the mood in any room, in every situation. He was a reliable worker and someone I’m going to miss dearly. Most of all I’m going miss hearing his words of wisdom and rules of life.
Rest in peace!
Please accept my heartfelt condolences. You are always one phone call away from me.
Sincere Condolences to the family
Mike —
“God looked around his garden and found an empty place
He then looked down upon the Earth and saw your tired face
He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest
And with the help of Angels flew you to your heavenly place.”
Forever in my heart dear brother, until we meet again.
Sending my heartfelt condolences to family. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers always.
