CAROBELLI, Franco Joe - It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden but peaceful passing of Franco, surrounded by his loving family at the Hamilton General Hospital on Tuesday, July 31, 2018 in his 84th year.
Beloved and devoted husband of the late Angela (nee Fortino) for 53 years. Loving Father of Mike and Lucy, Enzo and Gabriella and Frank and Elisa. Adoring Nonno of Nicole, Melissa, Matthew, Daniel, Mia and Alexa.

Franco will be sadly missed by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Franco was a strong, selfless man, his garden was his passion and it gave him pleasure to share the fruits of his labour with his family, friends and neighbours. Franco's family was everything to him. He had an undying love for his wife Angela, and his grandchildren gave him the utmost joy. Franco leaves behind a legacy of love and loyalty to his family.
As a partner in Fortino's Supermarkets, Franco's strong work ethic left an indelible mark on his family, partners, employees, and his customers.
