DISANO, Anthony
1931 – 2022
It’s with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Anthony Disano at Tech Pioneer Residence on Wednesday, July 13th, 2022. Anthony is predeceased by his parents Domenico and Anna (nee Celli) Disano & wife Nina (nee D’Andrea) Disano. Anthony will be forever missed by his sons Domenic, Paul, Michael and Danny Disano, all of Kirkland Lake. He will also be lovingly remembered by his sister Clara Bottaro, brother-in-law Germano D’Andrea, his nieces and nephews Dino (Anna) Bottaro, Leanna (Brent) Seaton, Cathy D’Andrea, John (Adrianna) D’Andrea, Mark (Mary) D’Andrea and David (Monica) D’Andrea.
Anthony was born in Villa St. Lucia, Degli Abruzzi, Italy on December 31st, 1931. In 1937, he and his mother emigrated to Canada & joined his father in Kirkland Lake, who worked in the local mines. In 1958, Anthony married Nina and began a family of their own.
Anthony worked as an automotive mechanic at Sackriders Garage & Caswell Motors, before becoming a shop teacher in 1963. He taught automotive mechanics at KLCVI for 26 years where he provided exceptional technical education to many local students.
Anthony was a loving and devoted husband, father and uncle, who placed his family above all else. He enjoyed skiing, cheering on the Montreal Canadiens and making homemade wine & sausage. Anthony also loved reminiscing with friends over a glass of wine at home or a cup of coffee at McDonalds.
Anthony’s family would like to extend their most sincere thanks for the excellent care he received from the staff at Kirkland & Englehart District Hospitals & Tech Pioneer Residence during his stays there.
In respect of Anthony’s wishes, cremation has taken place and no funeral or visitation will be held at this time. In place of flowers, donations in Anthony’s memory can be made to Tech Pioneer Residence (145A Government Road East, Postal Bag Service 1757. Kirkland Lake ON, P2N3P4).
