Obituary of Constantino Pucci

Through the years of battling with illness, we had always said he was waiting for something before he could leave us. On Thursday, February 9, 2012 in his 73rd year, he finally decided he had seen all he was here to see. With his family surrounding him he closed his eyes and said goodbye. He leaves behind his most devoted wife Lina, who for 9 years took care of him at home. Loved father of Anna Robibaro (Mo), Stan (Helen) and Maria Pagnotta (Aldo). Cherished Nonno of Nick and Stephanie Pagnotta, Darian Pucci and Maya Robibaro. Son of the late Camillo and Filomena Pucci. Brother of the late Antonio (Maria), Oreste (Matilda), Rachella and the late Gino (Lina). Son-in-law of the late Lorenzo and Clorinda Diodati. Brother-in-law of the late Carmela Marandola (Giuseppe), Giovanni Diodati (Guilia) of Sault Ste. Marie, Antonio Diodati (late Clara), Maria Mancini (late Pasquale), late Peppino Diodati (late Lea) and Elio Diodati (Marisa) all of Italy.

He was an avid wrestling fan and despite his illness he always knew when wrestling was on.
