It is with heavy hearts we announcing the passing of John “Satch” Colasimone who passed away peacefully at home on April 11th at the age of 65. John was born on October 20th, in Sudbury to Henry and Thelma Colasimone (predeceased). John is survived by his wife, Christine, and children Johnny (Kali) and Catherine (Mitch).
Loving brother of Audrey (predeceased), Norm (Joyce) Colasimone, Arlene (Jim) McBride, Raymond (Susie) Colasimone, Beverley (Barry) MacDonald, Rhonda (Robert) Greco, June (Frank) Healy, Perry Colasimone and Bernice Colasimone (Danny). He will be missed by his many nieces and nephews and many close friends like Al, Doc, Huck, and Judi.
He enjoyed a lifelong career at Canadian National Railway, where he made many long-lasting friendships, and worked many different roles ultimately retiring as a Train Master. He was very passionate about the town of Capreol where he served on the local council, spearheaded the Save the Rail campaign, sat on the Capreol CAN Committee, and co-founded the Capreol Daycare. Despite all of these roles, his favorite position was being the Assitant Super Attendant of Ella Lake. Ella lake was his favorite place, spending all his summers on the Hanky Panky Sandpan and where he created the Back 40 for all of us to enjoy amazing music and create memories to last a lifetime. We know he will forever be watching all the concerts at the Back 40 with us.
There will be a celebration of life at a later date when we can all get come together in his memory.
