Peter passed away peacefully, on Wednesday, March 12th, 2025, in his 91st year. Beloved husband of Carole, dear and loving father of Michael (Lily), Leanne (Jamie), and Paul. Papa will be sadly and forever missed by his treasured grandchildren, Peter, Megan, Madeline (Julian) and Kyleigh. Peter has been reunited in heaven with his much loved sisters and brothers, Mary, Frank, Jean, Victor and James.
Peter was a proud 40-year employee of Ontario Hydro, ("my dream job!"), where many strong and lasting friendships were made, both in Canada and the US, with the game of golf having a high priority throughout his life. After retirement in 1993, Peter and Carole travelled extensively both "on land and sea", with wonderful friends, all of whom enriched their lives.
We especially want to mention his cousin Clara Antonacci, and thank Peter's oldest and dearest friend, John Gennaro, for his love and guidance throughout Peter's life. We would also like to thank Father Paul Begin, and the staff at the Dorothy Ley Hospice for their superb care and support.
Please join us on Thursday March 20th, 2025, at 11 a.m. for Mass of Christian Burial at Our Lady of Sorrows Roman Catholic Church 3055 Bloor St W., Toronto. Interment to follow at Park Lawn Cemetery. Cremation has taken place.
If desired, gifts in memory can be made to the Dorothy Ley Hospice www.dlhospice.org/donate, 416 626 0116 or to any children's charity of choice. Online condolences may be made through www.turnerporter.ca.
