On October 31, 2022 at the age of 89, Gerardo Ursitti took his final breath with his family by his side. You were loved beyond measure and you made sure we felt your love in all you did for our family right until your passing.
Thank you for your gift and joy of life. Your strong, calm, and gentle nature will continue to guide us. You were the kindest and sweetest man and everyone who knew you, knew that your family was your pride and joy. The spark and joy of life you instilled in us will continue to shine even brighter in your memory.
We could not have asked for a kinder, more supportive, generous and loving husband to Concetta, loving dad to Claudio (Franca) & Clara Fitzgerald. Nonno to Sabrina, Nicholas, Diana, Jessica & Johnny. Brother to Leonardo (deceased), Vincenzo (deceased) Giuseppe (deceased) and Giovanni Ursitti. Uncle to many loving nephews and nieces, and friends.
You spent most of your working life with Maple Leaf Mills Limited in Toronto and we’re proud to be a Quarter Century Member. Also working in Italy, Switzerland, and France before making Toronto home.
Gardening, Walking, Bocce, Wine Making and Curing Meats were your passions.
We will miss you and remember you with fondness every time we think of you.
When we share our sorrows, they are diminished; when we share our joys, they are enhanced.
May You Rest In Eternal Peace.
