PERNA, FRANCESCO God called Francesco peacefully on July 2, 2020 from the Hawthorn Woods Care Community at the age of 93.
He will be sadly missed by his loving wife Caterina. Loving father to Rosa (Nicola DeFrenza), Joe (Patricia) and Mary (Vito Dinatale). He will be the guardian angel of his grandchildren Tony, Frank (Lucy), Marlo (Jennifer), Catherine, Robert, Emilio and Francesco and great-grandchildren Giuliano, Valerio, Luciano, Talia and Lily. We were blessed to have had such a caring and thoughtful father who cared and sacrificed without reservation for his family.
