I have the fondest memories growing up with the dearest uncle anyone could ask for. His sense of humour and hospitality could never be duplicated. He was always energetic and cheerful, having a great time with family and friends. He genuinely took care of everyone, always behind the grill cooking for dozens of people.
Zio, may you rest in peace. Love you. ❤️

A lovely person who would would always lighten up a room, giving you a warm feeling inside. You will be missed by us and everyone who knew you. Zio we loved you so much, rest in peace🥰.

Sabino was such a kind hearted, funny man, who lit up every room he was in. I will always remember going to his and Maria’s house to make tomato sauce, he always made me feel like apart of the family. Sabino, you will be missed, rest in peace 🤍
Sabino truly made over fifty years of being neighbours a delight. His charm , wit and kindness were remarkable. He will never be forgotten.
Dear Mary, Tony and Joe… we are so sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. He was a gentle soul with always a wonderful smile.
Sabino with his considerable charm, wit and kindness as a neighbour for almost fifty years made living on Broomfield a delight. He will never be forgotten.
He was always one of my favourites on my aunts side of the family. Always telling jokes and always made me laugh. Lots of good memories growing up as a kid. My deepest condolences to the whole family.
Our deepest sympathies for your loss. Rest in peace Sabino

Our deepest condolences on the loss of your wonderful husband and father. May he rest in peace 🙏
Sabino was a longtime employee of Ewing who retired a very valued employee because of his sharp mind and hard work. He was always clear about what was most important in life…FAMILY and he was right. We will always appreciate his years with us and will remember him fondly.
Sabino was a part of my life for nearly 50 years and helped mold who I am today. He was a second father figure to me, and always took the time to teach me how to do things for myself, instead of being reliant on others to do it for me. The knowledge he imparted on me helped make me a better, smarter, and stronger person, and for that I am forever grateful. Our birthdays were only days apart, but Sabino made sure to keep the spotlight on mine in another effort to make me feel special during those early years. I will miss him dearly and wish Maria, Tony, Joe and their families my deepest and most heartfelt condolences. Rest in peace Sabino😥
Maria, so sorry for your loss . Our condolences are with you and your family.
May he rest in eternal peace
Maddalena and Domenic Capasso
My deepest sympathy to the Zitoli family, Maria, Antonio, Giuseppe and the five grandchildren. Sabino was a very happy and loveable person. He will be greatly missed. May he rest in peace.
