Di GIOSEFFO, Giuseppe Luigi, June 12, 1917 - Oct. 20, 2008. It is with great sadness that the family of Giuseppe Joe Di Gioseffo announce the death of a much loved husband, father, nonno, brother-in- law, and uncle. Giuseppe was born in Buia, Udine, Italy to Augusto and Assunta (nee Plos) Di Gioseffo (predeceased). He was the beloved step-son of Giovanna (nee Coletti), and brother of Miro, Augusta, Romana, Artura, Egle, and Vittorio, (all predeceased). He met his wife of 59 years in Italy and came to Canada with a young family in 1954. With his wife Giuseppina, he provided a strong foundation for his children and passed on to them the values of hard work, living simply, and putting family above everything else. Like his namesake, St. Joseph, Joe earned a living working with his hands as a labourer with many companies. He last worked as a caretaker for the Sudbury School board until retirement age. In healthier years, he enjoyed his garden, winemakeing, hunting, fishing and most of all cooking the bounty of his labour. He was proud to be an Alpini and was also a member of the Fogolar Furlan. Sadly missed but never forgotten by his wife Giuseppina, his 2 children Augustine, and Amelia de Blacam, Loretta and Killian whom he loved as though they were his very own, grandchildren Joseph, and Alexandra Di Gioseffo and sisters-in-law, brother-in-law, nieces and nephews in Canada, Italy, and Switzerland, Mandi Zeff. The family would like to thank the many people who looked after Joe during his lengthy stay at the Sudbury Regional Hospital, particulary, Dr. Anthony Graham and his team who enabled him to make such progress after his stroke, Dr. Dhatt, and Dr. Lynch and the many compassionate and dedicated nurses, team members and volunteers of the Complex Continuing Care Unit. In Joe's memory, kindly make donations to L'Arche Sudbury, Christ the King Building Fund, or the Special Events Committee, Complex Continuing Care, Sudbury Regional Hospital, Laurentain Site. Friends may call at JACKSON AND BARNARD FUNERAL HOME Wednesday October 22, 2008 from 6:30-9:00 p.m. Mass of Christian Burial Thursday October 23, 2008 at 10:00 a.m., Christ the King Catholic Church. Entombment in the Civiv Mausoleum. Flowers, donations or messages of condolence available online at www.lougheed.org. 11287818
