It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Francesco (Cesco) Andreola on Thursday, June 29th at the age of 101 years. He was predeceased by his beloved daughter, Lina. He is survived by his loving wife of 74 years, Teresina, daughter Valeria, sons-in-law; Decimo and Robert, grandchildren; Dale, Sylvia, Colin, Derek, Justin, Brian, Natasha, Darryl, 18 Great grandchildren; Massimo, Alessia, Milene, Isla, Nello, Mikayla, Anthony, Thea, Lola, Presley, Oliver, Leo, Annik, Cy, Lily, Hiro, Ophelia, Roman and many nieces, nephews and friends both here and in Italy.
Lovingly known as Nonno to his immediate family, Francesco was a man of few words but full of love, honesty and respect. He was a very disciplined hard working human being who always had his priorities in the right order. At the very young age of 7 his mother died, as an adolescent he took part in the second World War, and In 1986 he suffered the great loss of his loving daughter Lina. Because of his strong faith and belief in God, Francesco faced these challenges with enormous dignity and strength.
There was no compromise to Francesco’s character and integrity, and he epitomized the meaning of CLASS right to the end.
Francesco (Nonno) you will be forever loved.
