Caro Amore, Papa e Nonno

You were the most devoted, hardworking, loving, joyful and generous man -
the heart and patriarch of our family.

Your courage to embrace every challenge has inspired us to face life without fear. From your journey from Italy with only what you could carry, to building a life in Australia and raising a family, you are truly an inspiration to us all.

We will forever miss you,
our Francesco

We love you eternally,
may you rest in peace.
