Obituary of Domenico Coladipietro

Passed away at his home in Cambridge on Saturday, May 5, 2012 at the age of 75. Predeceased by his cherished wife Regis in 2000. Dominic is survived by his children, Teri Puschelberg & husband Rob, Adam & Hilary, Michael & wife Liana, and Donato & fiance Ryane. Much loved Papa to Heather and Aaron, and adored Nonno-Dominic to Massimo and Julia. Also survived by his brother Ramon & wife Dawn, and niece Lina and nephew Donato. He left his legacy in the positive impact he made to so many young students as a teacher in Toronto (St. Alphonsus Elementary), Kitchener (St. Mary's Elementary), as well as Cambridge (St. Francis Elementary). His spirit and resiliency was an inspiration to everyone he knew. He always had a smile and a cheesy joke for everyone. His camera was never far away and he saw and captured the spirit of life everywhere.
