In memory of

Pietro Franchi

February 21, 1938 -  September 28, 2025

It is with deep love and sorrow that we announce the passing of Pietro Franchi, who left us peacefully on September 28, 2025, surrounded by family.

Born in Italy, Pietro came to Canada at the young age of 14. With determination and dedication, he built a life rooted in hard work and love. He spent his career as a skilled carpenter and glazier in the construction industry, providing tirelessly for his family and leaving behind a legacy of craftsmanship and perseverance.

Pietro was the devoted husband of the late Margaret Franchi, with whom he shared many years of love and companionship. He will be forever cherished by his son Peter and daughters Sandra and Lisa. His greatest joy was found in his grandchildren, Reagan, Sophia, and Nathan, who brought him endless pride and happiness.

Pietro will be remembered for his quiet strength, his devotion to family, and the values of hard work and kindness that he instilled in all who knew him. His memory will continue to live on in the hearts of his family and friends.

The family takes comfort in knowing that Pietro is reunited with his beloved Margaret and that his life’s work and love will never be forgotten.
