PRIMUCCI, Vincenzo (Vince) - It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Vincenzo (Vince) Primucci, on Monday, February 12, 2018.
Vince was a loving and devoted husband to Lucia (Losacco) for 59 years and a loving and much-loved father to Dominic, Rose Pecorella (Roger), Nick and Diana (Mark).
Most particularly he was a proud Nonno and role model to his grandchildren Sara, Jessica, Monica, Kasandra, Nina and Isabella. Vince will be deeply missed by his brothers Giuseppe (Lucia), Savino (Gemma) and Michele (Susana) and his sister Teresa Bartucci (Ron).
Vince will be sadly missed by his many brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, Rosina Lapegna (Peppino), Maria Partipilo (Giuseppe), Joe Losacco (Cecile), Sam Losacco (Francis), Frank Losacco (Maria), Domenico Losacco (Tammy) and Nancy Loquercio (Nicola) and his many nephews and nieces.
Vincenzo immigrated to Canada in 1952 with his father to provide a better life for his family, and that he did.
With God in his heart and a passion to help people he lived a life of courage, honesty and dedication. He created businesses that allowed for many people to also enjoy lives filled with joy – one such family business created by him and his brothers being Pizza Nova. He inspired others to reach their own full potentials.
He worked tirelessly and gave endlessly of himself in every aspect of his life – his faith, his family, his businesses and his philanthropic endeavors. He had a unique ability to interweave these three areas of his life in order to share the spirit of God to the community, whether it be donating revenues from pizza sales to charity, or distributing handcrafted religious artifacts, such as rosaries.
His focus in life was to bring peace, love and happiness to all. He will always be loved and remembered as a very welcoming, gentle, kind and loving soul. He will be dearly missed by all and forever in our hearts.
The family will receive friends and family at Highland Funeral Home, 10 Cachet Woods Court, Markham, Ontario L6C 3G1 from 3:00 until 5:00 and from 7:00 until 9:00 p.m. on Wednesday, February 14, 2018. A Roman Catholic Mass will be held at Epiphany of our Lord, 3200 Pharmacy Ave., Scarborough, Ontario M1W 3J5, at 11:00 a.m. with a reception to follow for family and friends.
In lieu of flowers, donations, in memory of Vince Primucci may be made to Markham Stouffville Hospital .
