Gerardo Macchia

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Gerardo Macchia on November 1st, 2024. He will will forever be missed by his wife of 66 years, Filomena (nee Balinzo), his children; Antonina and Bruno (Cathy), and his grandchildren; Joanna (Toni), Anthony (Julia), Melanie, Christina, and Carina, his great grandchild; Aurora; and his parrot, Bello. 

Gerardo was born August 20, 1936 in Guardia Lombari, a small town in Italy. Upon getting married, he and Filomena then moved to Canada to start their new lives. He was an avid lover of italian music and often filled the house with his accordion playing. He also loved playing italian cards with friends and telling stories of his mischievous younger days in Italy. 

Gerardo peacefully left this earth with having a happy life on earth and family full of love. God bless his new journey.

In memory of Gerardo, a donation can be made in his name to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
