MEFFE, Nicola 'Nick' - Nicola Meffe, 85, loving husband to Vincenzina, peacefully passed away in his sleep, early Friday, July 17, 2020, at 5 a.m.
Born in Torella del Sannio, Campobasso, Italy. Nicola arrived in Toronto in 1955 as a 20 year old married by proxy to his village sweetheart. Together they made a wonderful life working three jobs for most of his life and being the best father his two sons could ever wish for; Domenic an Architect, and Silvano an Engineer.
Nicola's two sons rewarded Dad's hard work and deep love with the best gift he ever dreamed, a total of six extraordinary grandchildren Veronica, Nicolas, Julia, Sofia, Emma and Sara. These grandchildren became the high octane fuel that energized his rebirth as a grandfather extraordinaire traveling, caring, giving, and playing with all his grandchildren, along with his mythical 50 year love and connection with 20 plus family pets.
In short he was a great husband, father, mentor, brother, friend and treasure to all. We love you and miss you deeply!

Funeral mass will be celebrated at Transfiguration of Lord Parish, 45 Ludstone Drive, Toronto, on Tuesday, July 21st at 11 a.m. (Due to the pandemic, limited capacity and seating will be available at the church.
