Giuseppe De Luca

It is with great sadness that the family of Giuseppe De Luca announces his passing after a brief illness, on Tuesday, March 2, 2021, at the age of 85 years. Giuseppe will be forever missed by his loving wife Ida of 57 years and his children, Carmela (Douglas), Gennaro (Paola) and by his daughter-in law, Rosie, wife of his dear deceased son Fernando. Beloved nonno of his 7 grandchildren, Luca, Gabriel, Sicily, Samuele, Eloisa, Joey and Michael.
He will be fondly remembered by his many siblings, inlaws, nephews, nieces and cousins.
Our beloved Giuseppe (Peppino) was a pillar of strength to us all. Like a rock, he was a solid foundation on which we could brace ourselves.
“The longest nights are seldom seen approaching. Storms may not be heard until they break. Like life itself, challenges and change are there to be confronted and we must weather them, alone or together.” Ciao Ciao papa. We must face the storms on our own now.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that you consider supporting Luca Doctor in his ride to conquer cancer in memory of his grandfather Giuseppe.
