It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Cosmo Barile on June 25th, 2020 at the age of 94. Born January 15th, 1926 in Macchiagodena, Italy, he immigrated to Canada with his young family in 1964. After working in the construction field of Montreal for many years, he was pivotal in the full construction of one of the city's landmarks, Place Bonaventure.
Cosmo enjoyed gardening, a friendly card game of Briscola, wine-making, and spending quality time with his family. Days away from their 78th wedding anniversary, he is survived by his wife Annunziata, his 3 children Incoronata (Nicola), Giovanni (Concetta) and Matteo (Nella), (Dawn Marie); his 9 grandchildren Domenica, Joanne (Yves), Cosmo, Laura (Patrick), Carolyn (Giuseppe), David (Melissa), Amanda (Lino), Mike (Angela), and Michael; and his twelve great-grandchildren Melissa (Nicholas), Vanessa, Leonard, Erica, Sienna, Eva, Joey, Matteo, Angelo, Luca, Sofia, and Gemma.
Cosmo was a gentle, loving, and caring man with a gift for storytelling. He was the pinnacle of courage, the epitome of strength, a role model for his family and loved by all whom he encountered. He will be deeply missed but his legacy will live on in his family. Shine down upon us. We love you Pà, Nonno, Bisnonno, per sempre.
