Obituary of Gene Rossetto

Angelo “Gene” Rossetto  1941 - 2020

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Angelo “Gene” Rossetto. Predeceased by his parents Jack and Lina Rossetto and brother Clifford Rossetto. Survived by his older brother Norphy Rossetto, nephew Wayne Rossetto and nieces Coleen (Bill Klingender), Christine Rossetto, Michelle (Jeff King) and Leslie (Kevin Hardiman) and his four grand nephews; Chris Vanier, Trevor Klingender and Spencer and Ryder King. He will be remembered by his Aunt Doris Miotto and Uncle Eugene Miotto and by his many cousins and friends. Gene will be sadly missed by his close friends Ted and Gena Gryn of London and the parishioners at St. Peter’s Cathedral Basilica in London. Gene was a devout Catholic in his beliefs and spiritualism. Gene suffered a stroke years ago that impaired his speech but that did not diminish his spirit for life. He was an avid reader and an amateur photographer. His career as a librarian in St. Catharines and later in London was a great part of his life as is noticed by the many books at his home. Gene’s family would appreciate donations to the Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation. Gene’s family will be having a private memorial service on Friday December 4, 2020 at GEORGE DARTE FUNERAL CHAPEL, 585 Carlton St. St. Catharines.
