After a long battle with lung cancer, Salvatore Giuseppe Manganaro passed away peacefully on April 25, 2026, at the age of 89.

Beloved husband of Maria Rosaria (Stagno), Salvatore was a devoted father to Vincenzo (Denine), Giuseppina, Francesca (Vince), and Ignazio (Michelle), and an adored Nonno to Milaina, Matthew, Adamo and Sebastian.

Known for his humour and charm, Salvatore brought warmth and laughter wherever he went. He was a man of deep love and quiet strength, someone who made his family feel protected, cared for, and deeply cherished.

His greatest joy was his family, and he took immense pride in each of them. His stories, sense of humour, broken English sayings and loving presence will live on in all who knew and loved him.

He will be profoundly missed and lovingly remembered, always.

Rest in heavenly peace.

If so desired donations can be made in memory of Salvatore to the Canadian Cancer Society.
