MALLIA, Dr. Salvatore - Enveloped by peace and love, Salvatore passed away peacefully on Tuesday February 5, 2019 at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, Canada.
As a dear husband, brother, father, doctor and poet, Salvatore will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by his wife Jenny, his son Saverio, his brother Giovanni (Elena), his nieces; Vincenza (Lillo), Valentina (Jason) and Debora (Jason), his nephew Giuseppe (Shari), his Sister-in-Law Angela (Shabir), mother-in-law Rosa (predeceased by his father-in-law Giuseppe), and by the community that he so valiantly served during his career as a doctor.
Salvatore was born in Realmonte, Sicily, and came to Canada at the age of 27. He arrived in Canada prior to embarking on an adventurous journey through Africa to learn about the practice of tropical medicine.
During his brief visit to Toronto, he met his wife, Jenny, and thereafter, courageously built a life in Canada as a doctor, specializing in Psychiatry.
Salvatore never missed the opportunity to connect with everyone that he met in a deep, altruistic and loving way. He will be dearly and forever missed.
Visitations will be held at Bernardo Funeral Home, Dufferin Chapel, Toronto on Friday February 8th from 9am – 12pm. This will be followed by a ceremony from 12-1pm.
