Santo Frank Salfi

January 1, 1948 – March 27, 2025

With great sadness, we announce the passing of Santo Frank Salfi on March 27, 2025, at Lakeridge Health Hospital, with his loving wife Pina by his side. Together, they shared 52 memorable years. Frank was a devoted father to Cathy (Mike), Luigi (Tiphanie), and Tony (Heather), and a cherished Nonno to Vasili, Dimitri, Frankie, Dylan, Calista, Samantha, Bianca, and Elizabeth. He will be deeply missed by his sister Silvana (Gino, predeceased).

Frank was predeceased by his parents, Luigi and Caterina, and his sister, Maria (survived by brother-in-law Gaetano). He will be lovingly remembered by his extended family and many friends.

Frank immigrated to Canada in 1971 and was a proud member of the Oshawa Italian Recreational Club, where he enjoyed playing cards and sharing stories with friends. He had a passion for cooking and loved sharing meals with his family and friends. Known for his sweet tooth, he never missed a chance to indulge in his favorite chocolates. Traveling to Italy brought him great joy as he reconnected with his heritage.

Visitation will be held at Oshawa Funeral Home, 847 King Street West, Oshawa, Ontario L1J 2L4, on Wednesday, April 9th, 2025, from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm and from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. A service will be held in the chapel at Oshawa Funeral Home on Thursday, April 10th, 2025, at 10:30 am, followed by interment at Resurrection Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Frank’s memory to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.

Memories and notes of condolence may be shared at Oshawa Funeral Home.
