Obituary
On Aug 20, 2024, in his 90th year, Armando passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family.
Armando was born on Oct 22, 1933 in the town of Rocca San Giovanni, Italy to the late Letizia and Tommaso D’Amario, where he grew up with his siblings, Linda (the late John), Noreen (the late Nick), the late Ercole (Franca), Louie and Mafalda (Elio).
At the age of 14, he travelled with his father to Canada to forge a new life. He worked in the construction industry, earning a living to help his dad save enough money to bring the rest of their family to Canada. Through sheer determination, faith and hard work he helped build the foundation for their new life.
When he was 24 years of age, he took a leap of faith to become an entrepreneur, running a successful business in the sewer & watermain industry.
One year later he met and married the love of his life Esterina DiCarlo; she was his best friend, partner and stylist. Together they raised 3 daughters Letizia (the late Joe), Anita and Nadia (George). Through 66 years of marriage filled with love, commitment, and sacrifice, they persevered; always together, unified by an unbreakable bond.
He was a proud grandfather to Francesco (Christine), Stephanie (Lucas) and Christopher (Tia).
He took great pride in the 2 family homes he built.
He enjoyed tending to his garden, building things, driving, and he loved to dance. He never left the house unless his hair was just so, adding a dash of cologne, wearing a vest or a hat. He was the quietest person at the dinner table but when he had something to say it made an impact.
He was a gentle man, kind, good natured, affectionate, honest, trustworthy, and respectful. Always at the ready to help. He had a contagious smile. You could rely on him.
In his later years, his sense of humour became more pronounced and would leave you with a smile; he was cheeky, and would give you a wink; his strong will became ever more evident.
Throughout his 90 years he left an indelible mark on his families’ life, and the lives of everyone he met. His legacy will live on.
We would like to sincerely thank all who helped care for him in the latter part of his life and everyone who shared messages of support and condolences.
In Lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimer’s Society of Ontario.

We lost the sweetest person you could ever meet. Always ready with a smile and a kind word to share. I particularly remember the annual D’Amario family picnics. He worked hard to make them perfect for everyone to gather and enjoy. He loved those family moments. I hope all those loving memories of togetherness will sustain the whole family at this difficult time. My deepest and most heartfelt condolences to Esterina, Letizia, Anita, Nadia and the entire D’Amario family.
