He passed away peacefully at home surrounded by family at the age of 89.
Argentino leaves behind his treasured wife, Emma, of 65 years (July 2, 1955).
He also leaves behind his much-loved children Renzo, Antonio (Eve), Elsa (Craig), and Enio (Gina).
He was the proud Nonno of Michael, Nicole, Nathan, Caroline, Maximillian and Benjamin and cherished the relationships he had with them immensely.Argentino left his home in Terelle, Italy on November 11, 1951 and arrived in Canada with the desire and ambition to work hard and raise a family. He excelled as a Master Electrician and was recognized for his impeccable workmanship.
He trained and mentored anyone who expressed an interest in this field of work and gave generously of his time to provide services to family, friends and neighbours. Argentino’s love for ice cream began during his first summer in Canada and was the only food he requested and tolerated during his illness.
Ice cream is a symbol and reminder of his sweetness.
Argentino will forever be loved and remembered, and his presence immensely missed.
