It is with profound sadness we announce Pat’s unexpected passing at his home on Saturday, February 25, 2023, at the age of 60. Beloved father of Tiffany Di Simine-Rites, Kristofer Di Simine and Natasha Di Simine. Proud and loved Papa Dii of Ryker Rites. Dear brother of Joe (Peggy) Di Simine, Mario Di Simine and Rosemary Di Simine. Cherished uncle of Adam, Brandon and Alex. Pat will be lovingly remembered by his cousins Gracie and Pat Rocca as well as his large extended family in Philadelphia and Italy.
Pat chose a life in entertainment where he excelled as a singer/songwriter. He was a humble, loyal man. He cherished the people in his life and put other’s before himself, even to his own detriment. His smile lit up a room. He was a kind soul with a strong sense of calm. He was true to himself throughout his life.
Family and friends will be received on Monday, March 6, 2023 from 6 – 9 p.m. at Hulse & English Funeral Home & Chapel, 75 Church St. St. Catharines. A burial will be held on Tuesday, March 7, 2023 at 10 a.m. at Victoria Lawn Cemetery.
