Franco Pastore. Such a great man. Such an immeasurable loss.
I met Franco when he was in University in Ottawa, and was lucky enough to work with Maria. I was always amazed at his architectural genius, and became a “sorella” to both of them. What memories we made!
Franco and Maria - a one-of-a-kind love….a love story for the ages. One that many people never find.
And from that love they built an amazing family and life.
My thoughts & love are with Maria, Catrina, Daniella, Olivia, and the newest Pastore Beauty - Olive.
May you find the strength to face tomorrow, in the love that surrounds you today.
To all of us who were blessed to have known him - how lucky were we? Thank you Franco xo

I was deeply saddened to hear of Franco’s passing. We had the privilege of going to school together, and collaborated on projects, and I came to know him as someone whose passion for family and friends shone brightly, far beyond his impressive architectural accomplishments.
Franco had a unique way of making everyone around him feel valued and important, and his warmth and dedication to those he cared about left an indelible mark. While his professional achievements are a testament to his talent, it was his unwavering commitment to the people in his life that truly defined him. His spirit, kindness, and infectious enthusiasm will be sorely missed by all who had the honor of knowing him.
Our thoughts are with you during this incredibly difficult time. Please know that his memory will live on in all the lives he touched.

We were devastated to hear of the passing of Franco. Our hearts ache for his wife, his girls, his family and his newest ray of sunshine Olive. I remember meeting Franco for the first time in his beautiful home, and you could just feel the love he had for his family it was so special. He made me feel so welcome in such a short time. I wish we had the time to come back to the Sault for another weekend at the Pastore home by the water. He just had a presence in the room even if he wasn’t saying much, just always observing, smiling, chit chatting and cooking some delicious pizza. Life is too short, sending love and prayers. - Aleisha Wall
