ZITO, Santo

With sadness, we announce the passing of Santo on April 10, 2021 at the age of 90. Beloved husband for over 62 years, he leaves behind his wife Carmela. Cherished father of Mary (Angelo Di Nardo), Rocco (Mary) and Cathy (Frank Macieri). Proud nonno of Anthony, Leanna (John Bianchi), Natalie, Melissa, Michael and Christian and a soon to be great-grandfather. Predeceased by his siblings Marianna, Francesca, Mariana and Francesco, he is survived by his brother Filippo.

His legacy of instilling a strong family foundation will live on through his children and grandchildren.
