Angelene Cantor

CANTOR, Angie (nee Angelene Pacione) Peacefully went home to God on July 18th, 2020 in Etobicoke, ON in her 100th year. Pre-deceased by her beloved husband, Allan, her parents, Joe and Rose, and eight cherished brothers and sisters. Fondly remembered by her nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Angie was born before television was invented, two years after the end of the First World War. She grew up in a large Canadian-Italian family living on Donlands Avenue in East York. She enjoyed a long and rewarding career with CN Rail, keeping in touch with former coworkers who became old "railway friends." Angie and Allan travelled often, visiting Europe and Alaska, among other places. Her talents in the kitchen resulted in mouth-watering desserts such as butter tarts and coconut cream pie. A physical marvel who was still running up stairs in her late 70s, Angie was mentally sharp until the end. Aunt Angie was shrewd, strong, generous and kind. She liked a drink, loved to laugh, and treasured her God, family and friends above all else. Angie was devoted to her father in his later years, with her and Allan taking Joe on several trips. When Allan's health failed, Angie was a tireless and compassionate caregiver. In recent years, she was supported by wonderful friends who made it possible for her to live at home, as she wished. Angie's family is forever grateful to them. A Memorial Mass celebrating Angie's life will be held at a later date.
