Obituary of Giuseppe Perri

Please share a memory of Giuseppe to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.

Passed away peacefully at the F.J. Davey Home on Monday, May 1, 2017 at the age of 93. Joseph was born in Decollatura, Catanzaro Italy on March 19, 1924 to Rosa and Francesco Perri. Beloved brother of the late Angelo Perri (Alba), and the late Carmine Perri (Marietta). Dearly loved and cherished uncle of Rose (John), Mirella and Francesca (Luis). Loving great uncle of Jaclyn, Stephanie, Tyler and Angelica. Lovingly remembered by his "Davey Home family”, cousins and friends. In 1949, he immigrated to Canada with his mother Rosa and younger brother Angelo. He worked at Algoma Steel for many years before retiring in the eighties. He will be remembered as a devoted son, a loving brother and a special uncle. A true gentleman from another era, he was kind-hearted and generous to all, and especially to his nieces who adored him like a 'second' father. We will dearly miss our Uncle Joe.
