Giuseppe was born in Lipari, a small island off the coast of Sicily on May 19, 1935. In 1955 he married his beloved Marina and together they created a loving home and raised five beautiful children. In August 1966, in search of greater prosperity, they made the decision to leave their homeland and immigrate to Canada where they were blessed with another daughter. Giuseppe devoted his life to caring and providing for his family. His happiest moments were spent with his children and grandchildren, and most recently with his youngest granddaughter Michaela, who was the light of his life. He had a passion for gardening and loved making wine with his son and sons-in-law. In his later years he made numerous trips back to his beloved Lipari, where he spent time with family and friends, fishing and simply enjoying life. The family would like to personally thank Dr. M.B.

I didn't know Mr. Manicotto, but children are often a reflection of their parents, and I knew Wanda and Joe, and little Michaela, from their visits to the pharmacy where I used to work. Sorry for your loss Wanda. Condolences to you and the family. May your Dad rest in peace. - Posted by: Bradley Pisiak (no relation) on: Jul 24, 2014

I am so sorry to hear about your Dad, it is with great sadness, that I give you my condolences. I remember how your Dad was such a kind man, when my family was growing up down the street from yours on Manitoba Ave. Great memories in your home with your Mom & Dad and all us kids. He was always welcoming, and Ann & I always felt like family. Even when you moved to the Maples we still kept in contact when important events in our families lives occurred. He will be missed. On behalf of my Mom, Jean and Dad, Jozef, please accept our sincerest sympathy. - Posted by: Margaret Feliksiak (former neighbours-friends) on: Jul 24, 2014

Giuseppe, or Joe, as he was often referred to was as we would say in Italian, "da un pezzo", that is solid and reliable. Like so many of his generation who came to this country in search of a better life he was honest, hardworking and selfless. He cared deeply for his family and did whatever he could to ensure their well being. His commitment to his land of adoption, that is Canada, was unwavering but he never forgot his Italian heritage which he promoted and perpetuated with pride and dignity. My wife Anna and I offer our condolences to Joe's family and kin. He will be missed. - Posted by: Stan Carbone (Friend) on: Jul 24, 2014
