Antonio Cappellano
April 21, 1938 – October 23, 2017



It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father and grandfather on October 23, 2017. Antonio was born on in Miglierina, Italy. He was predeceased by his mother Felicia Cappellano, Step Father Angelo Guzzi, Grandson David Cappellano, In Laws Rosa Fiorentino, Agostino Mauro, Sam and Caterina Mauro, Giuseppe Aiello and Caterina Anania. Antonio is survived by his wife of 59 years Maria. His children Philis (Tony Mazza), Cathy (Myles Buchanan), Rose Cappellano, Joe (Rosemary). His Grandchildren Marie (Steve Michaud), Felicia Mazza, Brianna Buchanan (Jesse Shore), Mario Cianflone, Brett Buchanan, Sophia Cianflone, Antonio Cappellano, Giuliana Cappellano. In Laws Victoria Aiello, Frank and Maria Mauro, Angelo and Wilma Anania, as well as many nieces, nephew and cousins throughout Canada, USA and Italy.
Antonio immigrated to Canada at the early age of 20 years old marrying his wife Maria. He was an entrepreneur and had a passion for business. He worked very hard to provide for his family. He was a generous man leading a helping hand to those around him. He loved spending time with family and close friends enjoying a wonderful meal and listening to Italian music. Antonio was a humble man in life and now in death, he would not want us to focus on the sadness of his departure but instead focus on the happiness. Remembering the great times and the moments that brought us great joy.
The family would like to thank Deer Lodge Centre for their caring and compassion on units T7 and T4.
