Obituary
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Peter Rebello, who died peacefully, surrounded by family, at the age of 76, on May 13, 2025, the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima.
Beloved and devoted husband of 54 years to Louise. Loving father of Paul, Stephen (Liz), Mark (Anne), David (Jean), Mary (Fintan Farrell), John (Amy), Anne (Peter Skrepichuk), Martin (Natalie), Clare (Emmanuel Nazaire), Catherine (Delmon Jno Baptiste) and Sarah.
Devoted Grandpa to 37 beautiful grandchildren, Jeanlouis, Christina, Rachel (Michael Gomes), Daniella, Rebecca (Lucas Correia), Andrew, Daniel, Madeleine, Joseph, Isabella, Theresa, Sophie, Anna, Thomas, Marie, Luke, Sofia, Cecilia, Michael, Michael, Naomi, Monica, Katrina, Isaac, Emma, Matthew, Ava, Hannah, Charles, Zavier, Basil, Maria, James, Mia, Noah, Ella, and Xavier. Cherished Great Grandpa to Gabriella.
Dearest brother of the late June (Erwin Roy), Maryann (the late Nick Wolkowski) and Charles. Brother-in-law to Walter (Joelly), Maureen, Kerry (Melinda), Tammy (Fred Cole), and Brian (Linda).
Peter was born in Bombay, India and as a 16 year old, immigrated to Montreal with his family. He studied mechanical engineering at McGill University, where he met the love of his life, Louise. It was in these university years that Peter met Opus Dei, whose spirit would inspire his entire life. He had no idea what adventure was in store!
Their young family kept growing, and by 1992, there were eleven wonderful children. Always concerned with the education of their children, Peter and Louise were involved in the founding of Hawthorn School, a community that Peter was fully engaged with, right up until his death.
As their children grew up and started families of their own, Peter and Louise were overjoyed that many chose to establish their lives around the family home, developing a very close sense of community that he often referred to as the “Rebello Village”.
Peter was a well respected presence in the building materials industry. His career spanned over four decades, and brought him all across Canada, where he developed deep and enduring friendships that lasted a lifetime.
Peter’s faith was an ever-widening wave that touched larger and larger circles of the greater community. Whether he was criss-crossing the country or welcoming people into his home, he was always ready to share food, drink, music and warm conversation. He delighted in noticing a person’s needs and wants, and delighted more in being able to figure out how to move heaven and earth to be able to provide it. He cared deeply for the genuine happiness of each person, and took the time to listen and respond. His generosity was contagious.
Peter’s spirit and legacy will live on in the countless friendships he made, the lessons he taught, and the family he so dearly nurtured. His was a life truly well-lived—one of love and faith.
He will be deeply missed and forever cherished.

Dear Rebello Family,
I was an eye witness to all the wonderful words above. He really was a dear lover of life. He always called on my dad’s birthday. Such detail. His blessings are now the “Rebello Village” which will live on. Rest in peace Peter. With love and prayers.
Sean, Monica and the whole Hurley family.

We thank God for the gift of Peter Rebello. What a man!
I first met Peter 4 years ago. And as soon as I arrived at his house with a friend, he invited us to dine with the family. The conversation we had that day appeared to be that of longtime friends. He stayed in touch with me even when I lived 4 hours from Toronto. He leaves a wonderful example for us all. Rest in peace, Peter.

Dear Louise and family, I am a testament to the true words shared about the life of kindness and love Peter lived and showed to all around him.
Peter was a great friend and support to my husband during his illness, and up to his final seconds here on earth. The rosary he was saying hours before he passed on, and which he eventually took to his grave, was Peter’s. That is how much of a family you and Peter became to us in the most difficult season of our lives.
Peter was a wonderful soul and had a deep desire to make people happy. He took over the grocery shopping for my family, and did the hospital runs for Chichi including the difficult visit to the doctor where we got the saddest news. Peter also ensured that Chi’s spiritual needs where catered to as he frequently took him to the centre to see a priest of the work.
He sought hard to help me find me a job when I was new to Canada, and you both went above and beyond to help us settle in.
I could go on and on about Peter. However, I know that Peter has gone to be with the Lord and with his friend, Chi and I will try to take consolation in that.
I am praying for you and your family
Eternal rest grant unto Peter O Lord and let perpetual light shine on him. May His soul rest in peace, Amen.

From the moment I met Peter in the summer of 2023 he had a tremendous impact on my life. Peter has taught me how to deepen my faith, how to be a better father, how to work harder, how to keep light and joyful (even in the midst of tremendous suffering), how to use my mind and think strategically, how to give to others. He was such a remarkable man. A true Christian. I’m lucky to have met him. I will miss him.
